In this 4-hour course, we’ll cover all the basics regarding ethics for accountants. It is a completely updated version of my prior course of the same name that was released in 2020. It has all new actual disciplinary cases, as well as new sections on the Bernie Madoff and the QuadrigaCX cryptocurrency platform frauds. We’ll also review the oversight and disciplinary process, as well as the Code of Conduct for CPA Ontario, BC, and Alberta. We’ll conduct a deep dive into violations by the rule of professional conduct for the province of Ontario as well as the cases for BC and Alberta. I’ll show you what the top seven broken rules have been in Ontario since 1987 from a summary I’ve created by downloading all 904 discipline cases since then. We’ll see that these seven rules account for over 90% of all discipline cases. And we’ll go through more than two dozen new recent stories of CPAs who have broken the rules including what led them to do it, as well as the reasons why they received the sanctions they got. This will include a million-dollar case of personal income tax and GST fraud, a CFO who swindled the insurance company she worked for of over $3 million, a CPA who withheld funds from a client because they made a complaint and a CPA who miserably failed a practice inspection. This course has been created to give you a good understanding of what the rules are, what is, and what is not, acceptable behavior and therefore arm you with the information you’ll need to stay within the rules.
