UBC’s Faculty of Management team wins GAAPS

A team of management students from UBC’s Okanagan campus claimed first prize at the Gathering of Accounting Associates, Professionals and Students (GAAPS).

Ciera Elliott, Maxime Walker and Eric Binotto traveled to the University of Manitoba for the competition earlier this month, where they bested nine other teams from across the country. All three students are in the accounting and finance specialization in the final year of the four-year Bachelor of Management program.

The GAAPS is an accounting business-case competition where teams were presented with a seven-page business problem scenario and had two hours to find a solution and present their solution to a panel of judges.
