CalCPA has a new virtual course with CPE credit designed specifically for CPAs: ESOPs – What to Say When a Client Asks. CPAs play a critical role in guiding corporate clients through complex financial situations, including those related to succession planning and employee compensation. Taught by Employee Benefits Law Group Shareholder, Kevin Long, this course helps CPAs educate their clients on what they should know about ESOPs.
