In addition to emphasizing the ethical integrity required of all accounting professionals, our mission is to create ideas that deepen and enhance understandings with a strong leadership in the changing global environment.

Our goal is not simply to raise a new generation of CPA. As globalization moves forward, we hope to bring into the world accounting professionals who have high accounting and management capabilities in accounting firms, corporations, government agencies, NPOs, and a wide variety of other organizations. As our society continues to struggle through enormous change, CPAs and other accounting professionals are constantly faced with situations that do not appear in any textbook or accounting standard.
