If Andrew could only impart one lesson to his students, he would say that the strength of the CPA designation depends on them – let’s make this a profession the world esteems.
Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
