The schedule of events taking place will celebrate our profession, and the vital work bookkeepers do to support small businesses around the world. Last year saw the first ever Global Bookkeeping Week which was universally hailed as a resounding success. ICB Members in 110 countries took part in this fantastic celebration of bookkeeping. All the way from Melbourne to Manchester to San Francisco, bookkeepers involved in meet-up groups, webinars, and much more, to celebrate the crucial work that they do around the world.
Last year’s celebrations caused a media sensation where thousands of bookkeepers across the world got involved through social media. This year is your chance to join in with your fellow peers in ‘raising a cup’ to your profession, and like last year there will be plenty of prizes for the best picture!
