💙💛 Shaping Future Accountants, Inspiring Future Leaders

PICPA Cebu proudly supports initiatives that promote early career awareness and inspire the next generation to pursue the accountancy profession.

As part of the recently concluded National Federation of Junior Philippine Institute of Accountants (NF-JPIA) Senior High School Caravan, Executive Director Sugar Borja Sagarino served as one of the speakers, sharing her knowledge and insights on “Introduction to the Accountancy Profession and Opportunities.”

The session provided Senior High School students with a broader perspective on the accountancy profession, highlighting the diverse career opportunities available to future accountants across public practice, commerce and industry, government, and education.

With her extensive experience as a former JPIA leader and long-time adviser, and now as a member of PICPA, ED Sugar exemplifies the strong connection between JPIA and PICPA in developing future professionals and leaders.

PICPA Cebu congratulates NF-JPIA on the successful 2-day Caravan and commends its continued commitment to providing meaningful career guidance and professional awareness to aspiring accountants.

Through strengthened collaboration between JPIA and PICPA, we continue to nurture the next generation of CPAs and ensure a strong, relevant, and sustainable accountancy profession.

Together, let us inspire. Empower. And prepare the future of the profession. 💙💛

🤖 Beyond the Numbers, Into Smarter Decisions.

What happens when accounting expertise meets the power of AI? You get a room full of professionals rethinking how we analyze, decide, and lead. 💡

The recently concluded “Beyond the Numbers: AI-Powered Decision Making for Business Leaders and Accountants” last Friday, August 28, 2026, at Cebu Parklane International Hotel brought together CPAs and business leaders for a full day of meaningful insights, practical discussions, and thought-provoking conversations on the role of AI in today’s evolving business landscape.

With Atty. Bethuel V. Tanupan, CPA as our speaker, participants explored how AI can go beyond automation and become a powerful tool for better analysis, sharper judgment, and smarter decision-making.

And judging by the room, everyone was locked in. 👀📚

A big thank you to everyone who showed up, participated, asked questions, and stayed engaged throughout the session. Your curiosity and willingness to learn are exactly what keep our profession moving forward.

Because the future of accounting isn’t just about knowing the numbers.

It’s about knowing what to do with them. 🚀

Empowering Change: PICPA Cebu at the PALSCON Regional Convention

The call for a more sustainable and resource-efficient economy took center stage today, August 19, 2026, as the Philippine Association of Legitimate Service Contractors (PALSCON) convened its Regional Conference at the Montebello Garden Hotel in Cebu City.

Among the highlights of the event was a Fireside Chat on “Adopting the Advocacy of Circular Economy,” which brought together industry leaders and sustainability advocates to discuss practical pathways toward responsible business practices and long-term environmental stewardship.

Representing the Philippine Institute of Certified Public Accountants (PICPA) Cebu Chapter, its President, Atty. Kim Aranas, served as one of the panelists and underscored the critical role of accountants in advancing sustainability initiatives. He emphasized that accountants are uniquely positioned to guide organizations in the responsible stewardship of resources, measuring impact, and integrating sustainability into business decision-making.

Atty. Aranas also highlighted PICPA Cebu's commitment to promoting the principles of the circular economy across its four sectors—Public Practice, Education, Government, and Commerce & Industry—while extending its advocacy to businesses, communities, and policymakers. He noted that meaningful progress requires collaboration among professionals, government institutions, and the private sector to create systems that minimize waste, maximize resource utilization, and generate sustainable value.

The discussion reinforced the growing recognition that sustainability is no longer solely an environmental concern but a strategic business imperative. Through partnerships such as this, organizations like PALSCON and PICPA Cebu continue to play a vital role in fostering conversations that shape a more resilient and sustainable future.
