Join the corporation Partnership Program and share our commitment to excellence & diversity.

Purpose and Objectives

This Corporate Partnership Program (The Program) is designed to: solidify the relationships that the National Association of Black Accountants, Inc. (NABA) Boston Metropolitan Chapter has established with its corporate supporters; and facilitate achievement of our mutual objectives. The theme "NABA And You - A Commitment To Excellence And Diversity" certainly signifies this.

The Program objectives and endeavors are geared to: foster recruitment, retention, growth and development of minority accounting/finance students and professionals; and provide the chapter with the funding necessary to underwrite the Chapter activities/programs.

Structure

The Program is structured for participation at one of five levels: Pacesetter, Double Platinum, Platinum, Gold, and Silver. The first four levels (Pacesetter, Double Platinum, Platinum, and Gold) require companies to sign up and pay a membership fee that corresponds to the level of benefits. The Silver level is an introductory level for companies that have participated in NABA's annual conference for three years of more. The five-tier approach was designed to attract and accommodate diverse corporate partners at various levels of support. Benefits and privileges available to participants are matched to their level of support.

Primary Benefits

The primary benefits, privileges and services of The Program are: job search assistance; a designated scholarship award for pacesetter and platinum participants; special recognition at NABA events (i.e., Annual Minority Business and Student Conference, Annual Awards Program); special recognition in the Chapter's newsletter; and correspondence. See Matrix of Benefits and Privileges below for a complete listing of the benefits.

Participation

Participation is open to all companies. An application is included for your convenience. Commitment information is provided on the application. Your financial contribution will vary depending on the level of participation. Your commitment is for a three-year period.

The Program's fiscal year runs from September 1 to August 31 of the following year. Please call us at 617-445-NABA (6222) if you have any questions.
