Board Approved Ethics Course
Ethics for Initial Licensure
Requirement for initial licensure only. The AICPA
ethics course does not meet the ethics course requirement
for renewal.
The ethics course and examination is the self-study course,
including its lesson reviews and examinations, titled Professional
Ethics: the AICPA's Comprehensive Course, published by the
American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA), and is graded on a pass or fail basis.
The Board will, in its discretion, waive passage of this
course and examination if the application demonstrates passage of
an ethics examination of another licensing jurisdiction that, in
the determination of the Board, is equivalent to the course and
examination listed above.
Proof of passing the AICPA ethics course is required at time of
certification, and when an individual applies for
"reinstatement" of a certification lapsed more than
three years.
