The American Institute of CPAs has selected Robert J. (Bob) Kueppers, CPA, as the recipient of the 2024 AICPA Gold Medal Award of Distinction.
The Gold Medal is the highest honor granted by the AICPA. Since 1944, it has been bestowed upon CPAs whose influence on the accounting profession has been especially notable. Tracey Golden, Past Chair, AICPA and the Association of International Certified Professional Accountants, presented Kueppers with the award at the spring meeting of the AICPA governing Council.
