The “Stars of the Profession” tournament for employees of the capital’s centralized accounting departments will take place from November 18 to 22. It is timed to coincide with the professional holiday – Accountant’s Day.
“For the third year, our tournament has brought together the best employees of the city’s centralized accounting departments, inspiring them to further development. For them, this is an opportunity to go beyond their daily work, demonstrate their professional qualities, communicate with colleagues, exchange experiences and new ideas. And for us, it is an opportunity to form a team of like-minded people who are capable of not only maintaining a high level of professionalism, but also improving the centralized accounting system,” she noted.
Elena Zyabbarova, Minister of the Moscow Government, head of the capital’s Department of Finance.
The project to centralize budget accounting has been implemented in Moscow since 2018. The unified model allows for the regulation and unification of accounting operations, the generation of reports automatically, and the increase in the productivity of accountants.
More details about the rules of participation in the tournament
The “Stars of the Profession” tournament is part of this large-scale project. One centralized accounting office can put up several teams of six people for the competition. Applications are accepted until November 14 on the website.
Accountants will have to make a video business card and go through three stages: two remote and one in-person. Participants will begin their path to victory on November 18 with an online test of logic, attention, as well as the ability to write texts and work with numbers. On November 19, there will be another test of knowledge of regulatory and legal acts in the field of accounting.
The teams that score the maximum points after two qualifying rounds will advance to the final. It will be held on November 22 in the Smart City pavilion at VDNKh. Ten finalists will compete there. They will be asked to solve accounting problems and analyze non-standard cases. The teams will be evaluated by a competent jury, which will include representatives of the Ministry of Finance and the Federal Treasury of the Russian Federation.
The five final rounds are united by the common theme “Back to the Future”. In the first round “Cyber Warm-up”, the captains will have to travel in virtual space and complete various tasks. In the second stage “Triathlon”, the teams will be divided into pairs, each of which will have to solve a professional case. In the “Relay” round, all members of each team will have to pass the test.
Only the five teams with the best results advance to the fourth round, called “Skeet Shooting”. This competition resembles a brain ring: the team that presses the button first is the one who answers. The most difficult final round is called “Grandmaster” – its results determine who will win the competition.
“The Moscow Government employs ambitious, talented and motivated specialists. Their development is one of the important focuses of attention for the HR Services Department. At the “Stars of the Profession” tournament, colleagues from centralized accounting departments can not only make a name for themselves and receive expert recognition, but also exchange best practices from their field,” noted the head of the HR Services Department of the Moscow Government.
The organizers of the tournament “Stars of the Profession” are the capital’s departments of finance Andinformation technology, as well as the Moscow Government’s Personnel Services Department. You can watch the video broadcast of the final on the Telegram channel “Open Budget of Moscow”.
The first “Stars of the Profession” tournament was held in 2022. At that time, the event received a lot of positive feedback, so it was decided to make it an annual event. The project was recognized as the winner of the all-Russian competition “Best HR practices and initiatives in the system of state and municipal administration”, organized by the Ministry of Labor and Social Protection of the Russian Federation.
Moscow continues to develop a centralized accounting system. It is expected that by the end of 2025 it will cover more than 1.5 thousand, or almost 80 percent, of the capital’s state institutions. More information about the project is on the portal “Open Budget of the City of Moscow” and in the telegram channel “Open Budget of Moscow”.
