Roundtables (West Michigan)

In-person roundtable discussions held in Muskegon, Michigan with a cohort of ASE members.

Roundtables (West Michigan)

West Michigan roundtables provide an informal setting for groups of peers to come together and discuss areas of mutual interest, i.e., practices of other firms, legislation, or regulations.  Questions and discussions are welcome at any time during the meeting. Topics to be discussed at each meeting are selected by the group. Facilitated by the ASE West Michigan staff, the interchange may use an invited “expert” or may rely on participant resources. Roundtable groups meet October through May in the ASE West Michigan office in downtown Muskegon.
