A CPA is a certified public accountant who is licensed by a state board of accountancy. To earn the prestige associated with the CPA license, you are required to demonstrate knowledge and competence by meeting high educational standards, passing the CPA exam and completing a specific amount of general accounting experience.

Upon completion of the CPA exam, CPAs must meet requirements defined by their licensing state board of accountancy to maintain the license. For dedicated professional accountants, earning a CPA license is just the beginning. National Registry of CPE Sponsors is a program offered by the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) to recognize CPE program sponsors, who provide continuing professional education (CPE) programs in accordance with nationally recognized standards. Many State Boards of Accountancy require CPAs to earn required CPE credits through companies approved on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors. XTRAcredits is an approved CPE provider.

Many state licensing boards require that CPAs maintain and improve their skills through continuing professional education (CPE) courses and other opportunities for professional development.

The intricate and ever-changing rules and regulations of the state boards of accountancy present challenges to CPAs and firms when trying to understand and comply with CPE requirements.

Although CPAs must meet the specific CPE requirements of their state accountancy board, there are a few things common among jurisdictions:

Continuing education is due on the license renewal date
Continuing education must contribute to a licensee’s professional competence
CPAs must conform to NASBA/AICPA CPE standards, which include keeping appropriate documentation for CPE verification purposes

XTRAcredits offers courses for professionals to engage in and advance their career. XTRAcredits is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) as a sponsor of continuing professional education on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors.
