Dear Northern Chapter – VSCPA Members,
As we embrace the fall season and our tax colleagues take a deep breath, I’m excited to share the latest updates and opportunities across our chapter. October has been a month of momentum, collaboration, and forward-looking programming.
Coming up on October 28, we have two impactful sessions:
These sessions will provide valuable perspectives on staffing trends and benefits strategies in a shifting economic environment.
Looking ahead, I encourage you to save the date for our flagship event: Annual Tri-State Tax Update – January 21, 2026. This comprehensive session will cover tax changes across Virginia, Maryland, DC, and federal filings. It’s our largest single event in terms of both CPE hours and attendance, and a must-attend for anyone working in tax, and those looking for a full day of CPE.
We’re also continuing our commitment to ethics education with Regulatory Ethics 2025 on December 3.
If you’ve already renewed your membership, fantastic! If not, now’s the time to do so and ensure uninterrupted access to all upcoming events. And if you know a colleague who would benefit from joining, please encourage them to become a member. Your referrals help strengthen our network and expand the resources available to all.
We are deeply grateful to our Gold Sponsors – Aprio, Commonwealth Savers, Cordia/Cherry Bekaert, Virginia Easement, and Howard University for their continued support. Your partnership helps us deliver high-quality programming and build a stronger CPA community. Thank you for investing in our mission and our members.
Thank you for your continued support and engagement. Together, we’re building a stronger, more connected CPA community.
Warm regards,
Brian Bender
President, Northern Chapter VSCPA
