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.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
Good practical summary. More detail needed to develop an in depth plan but this is an excellent introduction to the process.
Great place to start! I have many ideas in my head and now I will categorize them into the correct parts of the plan and start developing the plan is a systematic way so I can communicate with the other founders and we can "Meld" our minds and allocate the parts out based on our separate expertise! Thank you!
good course with useful subject matter presented in a manner that can be easily applied.
