As an undergraduate student of a CPA Australia degree accredited higher education provider, The CPA Big Break Project is your opportunity to solve a real-world business challenge facing a global not-for-profit organisation.

Not only will you be witnessing first-hand the issues such a business faces in its development, it's also a great way to gain practical experience and win a share in over $100,000 in cash and prizes.

There are two stages to this challenge. Stage one focuses on the issue faced in expanding Room to Read into a new developing market and will determine the state winners. The second challenge will require detailed knowledge of accounting, finance, business concepts and the ability to apply these concepts to formulate a market entry strategy. This is the final challenge and will determine the national winner/s.

Stage One has now officially closed. For the many hard working people who entered this year, we'll be announcing state winners on 8 September 2010. So stay tuned!
