Bill overview
This bill changes the requirements for obtaining a California Certified Public Accountant (CPA) license. It creates an alternative pathway for applicants who have completed an accounting concentration of courses from a board-recognized U.S. institution of higher education, which will be available until January 1, 2029. The bill also allows licenses from other states with comparable requirements, removes a specific requirement for practicing under a practice privilege, and modifies the board’s consideration of foreign licensure standards. Finally, it includes several technical and conforming changes to the Business and Professions Code.
