Feature speaker at the closing ceremony was Deryck Murray- Vice President of the West Indies Cricket Board (WICB) and Chairman of the Transparency Institute of Trinidad and Tobago. Mr. Murray advocated the need for Accountants to be vigilant in upholding the principles and good names of all accountants, and should shy away from bad influences. He continued by stating in an era when so much corruption is taking place, accountants would be contacted to do the dirty work, and one bad accountant tarnishes the good name of the entire accountants fraternity and therefore one should be willing to contact the Transparency Institute and provide evidence so those who need to be held accountable, would be held accountable. The formal ceremony was followed by live entertainment from the Treo’s Band while invitees at the event danced and socialized.

The Grenada Public Service Cooperative Credit Union supports the need for professional development and education in Grenada, Carriacou and Petite Martinique, and applauds initiatives like these which help to build the capacity of our nation’s human resources.
