ASWA and Kaplan CPA Review Join Together to Provide Educational Resources to
Women in the Industry
(McLean, VA, December 16, 2009) – The American Society of Women Accountants (ASWA) is pleased to announce a new relationship with Kaplan CPA Review (Kaplan). ASWA and Kaplan formed this alliance to help women in the accounting profession better prepare for the CPA exam. This national partnership gives those in the industry an opportunity to learn from leaders in test preparation.
