NorSCA supports BASE business competition across the north 24 February 2014

NorSCA (Northern Society of Chartered Accountants) is pleased to support the BASE business game with heats across the north east and Cumbria starting this month.

BASE is ICAEW’s national Business, Accounting and Skills Education competition for students aged 16-19. A unique and exciting experience, students are able to engage in a challenging business game that enables them to develop key employability skills and understand what it’s like to be an ICAEW Chartered Accountant.

Consisting of 46 UK regional heats and one spectacular national final, students of all abilities attend their local heat to; find out more about careers in accountancy, finance and business, compete in a thought-provoking business game and network with professionals at a dedicated employer exhibition.

This year there are 4 heats taking place across the north east and Cumbria. NorSCA members have volunteered their time to assist with each heat – by acting as a mentor with each of the student teams or by being part of the judging panel.  Schools and sixth form colleges entered their teams earlier in the year and all the heats are now full.   We are now looking forward to BASE 2014 in our area:
