Business and community partners serve as members of the Program Advisory Council (PAC) to guide the program.  The Program Advisory Council is critical to provide feedback related to the curriculum as well as to provide guest speakers, field experiences, and opportunities for internships.  A major event sponsored by the PAC is Job Shadowing Day when students see first-hand many careers available to them.  Over 20 local business and community members joined the PAC and meet monthly to support the Academy of Finance.
