KPMG scholarship programme is successful
KPMG in the Cayman Islands continues to see success in the number of candidates from Cayman who are interested in a career in the accounting profession. This year one of the leading audit companies announced that it will support 5 new local and overseas scholarship applicants.
These KMPG scholarships are awarded to young students from the Cayman Islands who have shown academic excellence and been willing to study accounting either locally or overseas. The local and overseas KMPG scholarships provide a number of benefits as well as practical work experience, acquaintance with different cultures and opportunities to study abroad.
This year’s overseas scholarship recipients are Daphnie Frederick and Tanja Scott, who will be studying through the completion of their Bachelors degree in Accounting in the United States, while Samantha Hennings will begin her studies overseas in 2009.
KPMG Partner Sheenah Hislop–DaCosta said that KMPG understand “the importance of education in developing the skills needed for tomorrow’s generation”.
