Sixteen Trainees Enjoy Induction Day at Duncan & Toplis
News release
8th October 2012
Sixteen accountancy trainees gathered in Grantham, Lincolnshire for an interactive and informative induction day with the leading East Midlands chartered accountants and business advisers Duncan & Toplis.
The trainees are all beginning ACA (Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales) or AAT (Association of Accounting Technicians) qualifications or have joined Duncan & Toplis on a one-year placement.
“We hold an induction day every year for our new starters and it’s an opportunity for them to meet other trainees in the firm in a relaxed and friendly environment,” said Kim Moore, HR Manager at Duncan & Toplis.
“The trainees learned more about Duncan & Toplis thanks to talks given by our Managing Partner, Adrian Reynolds, and a number of colleagues who began their career as trainees with us.”
Maddie Barbarino from the Institute of Chartered Accountants in England and Wales gave a talk about studying for the ACA qualification and the afternoon was spent on
in-house induction sessions and completing paperwork.
“They all loved it,” said Kim. “It was a fun day – a bit of an ice breaker – and not all serious!”
