Supporting future Chartered Accountants: Inside LDB’s Graduate CA program

At LDB, we’re committed to supporting the next generation of accountants through structured, real-world learning and professional development. As part of our long-running Graduate Program, we recently welcomed representatives from Chartered Accountants Australia and New Zealand (CA ANZ), Jun Yuen and Joshua Jones, to speak with our newest graduate cohort.
Introducing the Chartered Accountants program
The Chartered Accountants Program is a key stepping stone in any accountant’s career, and at LDB we actively encourage all our first-year graduates to undertake the program. This recent session gave our graduates the opportunity to gain insight into the structure of the CA Program, including:
- The core and elective study modules
- Mentored practical experience requirements
- Available CA ANZ resources and support services
It was an engaging session that sparked great questions and discussion, giving our team the clarity and confidence to prepare for the journey ahead.
