Last October 11, 2014, the 6^th Executive Officers’ Cup (EOS Cup) commenced at De La Salle University - Manila. The competition was organized by the National Federation of Junior Philippine Institute of Accountants-National Capital Region and R.G. Manabat & Co., in partnership with De La Salle University Manila-JPIA. Different schools from the National Capital Region participated. 

CKS College was represented by Lynnette Chung (4^th year, BSA student), Kimberly Rose Chu (3^rd year, BSA student), and Hazelyn Xu (4^th year, BSA student. The said competition was comprised of 2 rounds, the elimination and the final rounds. There were about 27 schools in the elimination round and only the top 10 schools moved on to the final round. The elimination round had 30 questions distributed equally as easy, average, and difficult. CKS College garnered 570 points in the elimination round, which gave them the 5^th place in the elimination round and enabled them to move on to the final round.

In the final round, 24 questions were asked. The score for each question was dependent on the “bet” placed by each group on that question. Each bet corresponded to additional points if answered correctly and deductions were made, if not. The questions covered various board exam topics (Auditing Theory, Auditing Problems, Theory of Accounts, Practial Accounting 1, Practical Accounting 2, Management Advisory Services, and Business, Law, and Taxation), General Information, NFJPIA-NCR knowledge, and “jologs” questions which made the competition fun and unpredictable.  After almost 2 hours, the winners were announced and CKS College was named 2^nd runner-up. University of the East – Caloocan was 1^st runner-up, and Pamantasan ng Lungsod ng Maynila was declared Champion. Trophies, medals, and accounting books were awarded to the winners.
