Faculty of Management students Aliya Lalani and Mikail Beckford are representing for the U of L and their fellow accounting majors.

The pair, both in fourth year, was recently selected to be student ambassadors for the Certified General Accountants' Association of Alberta (CGA). The ambassadors represent the CGA brand on campuses across Alberta, talking to students, promoting the CGA designation and helping to organize events on and off campus.

Lalani recently earned second-place honours in Alberta's Next Top Accountant competition.

The annual event, a joint initiative of CGA and Talisman Energy Inc., took the form of a social media contest where students submitted videos outlining why they were the right person for the job.
