During this uncertain time, education is still a fundemental necessity. Our vision is to Accelerate the development of Black Female Chartered Accountants in South Africa. In order to realise this vision, the AWCA board has adopted a “Three Tier Strategy” which aims to: • Identify and develop young girls who aspire to be CA(SA)s for entry into universities to pursue a degree that will allow for them to enter into the profession • Nurture and train black women who are completing their articles as well as newly qualified black women CA(SA)s • Leadership development for black women CA(SA)s to groom them to hold key decision-making positions in Corporate SA and the Public Sector.
