A coordination meeting for the 2026 PICPA Cebu Summit and Accountancy Week Celebration was held last June 1, 2026 at the PICPA Cebu office.

Plans for the upcoming July 2026 events were discussed, timelines were aligned, and key program details were refined. Initial ideas for activities, engagements, and event flow were also presented and reviewed to ensure a well-coordinated celebration for the profession.

With preparations now in motion, stronger collaboration and continuous coordination are being set in place as both major events draw closer in July 2026.

What a fun way to spend a Saturday at the 2026 PICPA Cebu Summer Outing at JPark.

After the games and short program, everyone settled into their own version of fun. Some jumped into the pool, some attempted a game of water volleyball (with varying levels of success 😆), while others enjoyed nonstop videoke and zumba.

It's always nice to have opportunities like this to catch up, laugh, and spend time together outside of our usual PICPA activities. Thank you to everyone who joined and helped make the outing enjoyable and memorable.

Looking forward to the next one!
