Is eliminating the 150 hours requirement the key to building the professional pipeline? Host Chris Mitchell sits down with Kimberly Ellison Taylor, founder and CEO of KET Solutions, LLC to discuss how to build a stronger future for the accounting profession, and how getting rid of the 150-hour requirement may not be the best solution to increasing the amount of CPAs.

Kimberly also outlines her five E's for success that will benefit both prospective and experienced CPAs.
