About CAAA
The Canadian Academic Accounting Association (CAAA) is an organization of accounting educators, professional accountants and others who are involved in, or concerned about, research and education in accounting and related areas.
The membership annually elects the Officers of the CAAA, who constitute the Executive Committee. The Officers in turn appoint the other Directors, nominated by the Nominations Committee, to complete the Board of Directors.
The work of the CAAA is carried out through the efforts of the members of the Board, the executive and numerous committees and task forces established by the executive. The CAAA Administrative Officer is in charge of the permanent secretariat.
