EisnerAmper Ireland Academy

Our people are key to realising our vision to be recognised as Ireland’s leading professional services firm. Our approach to learning and development reflects this. EisnerAmper Ireland provides our team with a comprehensive range of competency, skills, business and technical training throughout the year.

This training includes an annual two day residential training programme (EisnerAmper Ireland’s Academy) every November. The residential programme is specifically designed for staff to accelerate their “on the job” learning and to ultimately become excellent advisers and practitioners. On 17 and 18 November 2016, the fifth residential programme was held in Seafield Golf & Spa Hotel in Gorey, Co. Wexford. The theme of the programme was “Risk and Opportunity” and included workshops, technical training, panel discussions and team building exercises. This year we were delighted to have a representative of EisnerAmper United States, Peter Cogan, Partner and Co-chair of the firm’s Financial Services Group, join us for the two day training session.

Participants also enjoyed some downtime where they could avail of the award winning facilities the hotel has to offer and also enjoyed a three course meal in the beautiful surroundings of Marlfield House . To learn more about the EisnerAmper Ireland Academy please click here.
