Rhode Island Auditor General Ernest A. Almonte will soon become chairman of the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, the professional organization for about 334,000 CPAs nationwide.

Almonte, a CPA who holds a bachelor's degree and master's degree from Bryant University in Smithfield, is the first AICPA chairman to come from the government sector, said former U.S. Comptroller General David M. Walker.

Almonte is currently the AICPA's vice chairman. He takes over the AICPA chairman's seat in October for a one-year term.
