ITEM 4.01 CHANGES IN REGISTRANT'S CERTIFYING ACCOUNTANT.

On September 25, 2006, the Audit Committee of the Board of Directors of Access
Worldwide Communications, Inc. (the "Company") dismissed BDO Seidman, LLP
("BDO") as the independent registered public accounting firm for the Company.
The Company has engaged DaszkalBolton, LLP ("DB") as the Company's new
independent registered public accounting firm, effective September 27, 2006.

     The report of BDO, dated April 11, 2006, on the consolidated financial
statements of the Company for the fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004
did not contain an adverse opinion or a disclaimer of opinion, nor was it
qualified, however, such report did contain an explanatory paragraph expressing
substantial doubt about the Company's ability to continue as a going concern.

      During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004, and
through September 25, 2006, the Company did not have any disagreements with BDO
on any matter of accounting principles or practices, financial statement
disclosure, or auditing scope or procedure, which disagreements, if not resolved
to the satisfaction of BDO, would have caused it to make reference to the
subject matter of the disagreements in connection with its report.

                                        2


     During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and
through September 25, 2006, there were no "reportable events", as defined in
Item 304(a)(1)(v) of Regulation S-K adopted by the Securities and Exchange
Commission.

     The Company provided BDO with a copy of this report prior to its filing
with the Commission, and requested that BDO furnish the Company with a letter
addressed to the Commission stating whether it agrees with the statements made
by the Company in response to this item and, if not, stating the respects in
which it does not agree. A copy of the letter, dated September 27, 2006,
furnished by BDO in response to that request is filed as Exhibit 16.1 to this
report.

     During the Company's fiscal years ended December 31, 2005 and 2004 and
through September 25, 2006, neither the Company nor anyone acting on its behalf
consulted with DB regarding any of the matters specified in Item 304(a)(2) of
Regulation S-K.
