Inside the Fall 2026 Learning & Development Circle

The way people build experience inside accounting firms is changing.
AI is taking on more of the repetitive work professionals have traditionally used to develop technical knowledge and experience. At the same time, firms are asking people to build judgment, communication, review and advisory skills earlier in their careers.
That creates an important question for Learning & Development leaders: How do you prepare people for work that is changing while they’re still learning how to do it?
Inside the Boomer Learning & Development Circle, leaders are working through that question now. They’re looking at how development needs to evolve, where L&D can take a bigger role and how firms can create meaningful learning without simply adding more training.
Our latest Inside the Learning & Development Circle gives you a look at what’s emerging from those conversations, including:
Why the traditional experience path is changing
How firms are rethinking the role of technical experts in training
What makes learning valuable beyond CPE requirements
Practical approaches L&D leaders are testing right now
Questions to take back to your own firm
The work is changing. The bigger opportunity for L&D is helping people build the skills, experience and confidence they’ll need for what comes next.
