Course Description

4.0 CPE TSBPA Approved Ethics for Texas CPAs

Texas Certified Public Accountants (“CPAs”) are required to take a four-hour course once every two years pursuant to Board Rule 523.131 to maintain their licenses. The course and instructor are approved by the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy.

Professional conduct and ethical behavior are really the backbone of the entire accounting and auditing profession. These components form the foundation upon which our creditability with the general public is built, without which, there is no profession. Whether you are a practitioner in public accounting or business and industry, you must always act in accordance with the requirements that define professional conduct and ethical behavior. This course fulfills the Texas State Board of Public Accountancy (Board) requirement. A CPA is challenged in today’s work world to not only serve his/her client or employer but also to protect the public interest by ensuring that there is transparency in financial reporting or there is fair administration of the tax laws. In balancing the two interests, a CPA may find him or herself in an ethical dilemma. This course covers not only basic ethical frameworks but also specific rules governing CPA practice and responsibilities. It concludes with a section on how a CPA can put his or her ethics into action.

This was the best ethics webinar I have attended in several years. The instructor's admonition that to improve ethics compliance, you have to change people was perfect. And it was a good mix of technical and practical materials.

This would be a six-star program except for the constant refreshing that occurred in the first 60 minutes of the video. This may have been due to a slow machine on either or both our parts or to extremely high band-width use as many people were home and on their devices. The program was clearly laid out and well-presented, making it relatively easy, except for constant refreshing, to follow and comprehend.
