Introducing the Boomer Knowledge Network
Boomer Consulting, Inc. is proud to announce the official launch of the Boomer Knowledge Network (BKN). In reality, however, the BKN isn’t new—it has been around for almost ten years as the Boomer Extranet, a service available exclusively to Boomer Technology Circle (BTC) members.
Our vision is an online community where individuals and firms leverage the resources of the greater Boomer community, expanding in content and features with ever-increasing regularity. For the past two years we have planned and developed an infrastructure that supports this vision and are excited to offer it for our members as well as new subscribers. The result is an ever-increasing number of minds coming together to collaborate on the leading issues facing the accounting industry today.
To support ongoing development, we are now offering BKN subscriptions to non-BTC members.
