Have you been quietly working on your professional masterpiece this summer?
Maybe it’s a book of insights from the field, a guide to help others navigate their careers, or a deeply personal take on what it means to be a CPA. Whatever you’ve been crafting under the summer sun, it deserves to be shared.
The CPA Education Foundation’s Hesje CPA Knowledge Centre has launched a Self-Publishing Grant Program to help Alberta CPAs turn their written works into published books. Each year, two CPAs will receive $5,000 worth of professional self-publishing services from FriesenPress—a Canadian publisher offering editing, design, distribution, and promotional support.
To apply, start by watching a short webinar—developed with FriesenPress—that walks you through the self-publishing journey.
“Brian Hesje FCPA, FCA—who inspired this initiative—was a self-published author who believed in the power of sharing knowledge,” says Foundation Director Erin Schwartz CPA. “This program brings his vision to life by empowering CPAs to use their voice and experience to help others.”
So, if you’ve been writing your passion project between road trips, barbecues, and late-night brainstorms—this is your moment.
