Internship Opportunities

TSC Enterprise believes that we should lift others as we climb ahead. 

Thus, we have created the TSC Cares Intern program.

According to a recent article in the CPA Journal, the dearth of minority CPAs has been a source of concern within the accounting profession for many decades.  Among U.S. CPAs in 1969, only 0.4% were African American, 0.9% were Latino, and 1.9% were Asian American (Theresa Hammond, A White-Collar Profession: African American Certified Public Accountants Since 1921, Chapel Hill: University of North Carolina Press, 2002). By 2008, those percentages had increased to only about 1% for African Americans, 3% Hispanic, and 4% Asian/Pacific Islander. The percentages for Hispanics and African American CPAs are still below that of their proportion in the general population. African Americans make up 12.6% of the U. S. population—why do they compose only 3% of the current CPA population? Similarly, Hispanics make up 16.3% of the overall population, but only 8% of new CPAs. This discrepancy exists despite numerous initiatives by prominent organizations such as the AICPA, National Association of Black Accountants (NABA), and Association of Latino Professionals in Finance and Accounting (ALPFA) to increase minority representation in the accounting profession. Some minority groups, on the other hand, have made major strides since 1969: Asian/Pacific Islanders make up only 5% of the American population, but 12% of new CPAs.

While the initial focus of TSC Cares was on the recruitment of minority accounting students, our outreach has expanded to increasing diversity in the workforce across all fields of study.
