Volume to Value: A New Era of Precision Hiring in Accounting examines how accounting firms are shifting from high-volume recruiting models to "precision hiring" as AI adoption accelerates and talent scarcity continues. Participants will explore why traditional hiring processes often overemphasize technical accounting knowledge while under-assessing the competencies that most impact performance-critical thinking, professional communication, and AI ethics awareness. The course explains how AI-enabled recruiting tools can support candidate screening, assessment, and retention forecasting, and why firms that do not modernize their hiring approach may struggle to compete for top talent. Participants will leave with practical approaches to competency-based assessment, ethical guardrails for AI use in hiring, and a high-level implementation roadmap with metrics to evaluate quality of hire, performance, and retention. This event may be a rebroadcast of a live event and the instructor will be available to answer your questions during the event.

Surgent's Understanding How the IRS Rewards Whistleblowers (2 hours)
-
Online
2.0 Credits
Member Price: $99
See more dates
In 2006, Congress passed the Tax Relief and Health Care Act. Prior to the Act's passage, rewards to individuals who provided information to the IRS regarding tax fraud were capped at $10 million. The Tax Relief and Health Care Act authorized the IRS to create a Whistleblower Office dedicated to investigating, processing and recovering claims concerning the underpayment of taxes. Under the IRS' new program, whistleblowers may recover 15 to 30 percent of the amount collected provided the taxes and amounts in dispute exceed $2 million. If the whistleblower's claim does not meet these criteria, the IRS may still consider granting an award under its pre-2006 Tax Relief Act discretionary authority. Given the rapid growth of this program, practitioners should have a basic understanding of the procedure and content for IRS Whistleblower claims, both from the perspective of a claimant's potential to recover and a taxpayer's exposure to liability.
