HIGHLIGHTS
As part of efforts to address accounting’s talent needs and expand access to accounting careers to more candidates, the American Institute of CPAs (AICPA) and the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) have proposed changes to the Uniform Accountancy Act (UAA), the CPA profession’s model law.
The proposed changes to the UAA would enable the potential adoption by states of the CPA Competency-Based Experience Pathway which would allow CPA candidates to demonstrate their professional and technical skills in the workplace after earning a bachelor’s degree and meeting their state’s requirements for accounting and business courses.
Learn about these two proposals and how you can submit feedback.
