THE NEW CPA EXAM 
By: EVAN VITALE
THE AMERICAN INSTITUTE OF CPAS 
PRESENTED EXCITING NEWS LAST 
WEEK. THEY ARE PLANNING TO 
REVAMP THE CPA EXAMINATION.
THIS IS NOT THE EXCITING 
NEWS AS THE TEST IS OFTEN 
UPDATED FOR CONTENT AND 
RELEVANCE.
THE EXCITING NEWS IS THE AICPA HAS 
DECIDED TO OPEN AT LEAST A 
PORTION OF THE REVISIONS UP TO 
PUBLIC COMMENT.
UNTIL NOW, THE CONTENT OF THE TEST 
HAS LARGELY BEEN DECIDED BY A SMALL 
GROUP AT THE AICPA, THE HEAD OF WHICH 
CURRENTLY IS MICHAEL A. DECKER, AICPA 
VICE PRESIDENT OF EXAMINATIONS.
DECKER AND HIS EXAMINATIONS TEAM 
RELEASED AN OPEN INVITATION FOR 
COMMENTS THAT WOULD HELP UPDATE THE 
RELEVANCE OF THE CPA EXAMINATION, 
SPECIFICALLY IN THE PRACTICE ANALYSIS 
SECTION OF THE EXAM.
THIS NEWS IS BEING HERALDED AS A BIG 
STEP IN THE RIGHT DIRECTION FOR THE 
AICPA BY MANY BECAUSE TIMES ARE 
CHANGING QUICKLY AND CPAS ARE BEING 
REQUIRED TO USE NEW AND DIFFERENT 
SKILLS EVERY YEAR.
THE EXAMINATIONS TEAM DOES FANTASTIC 
WORK INDEPENDENTLY BUT IT IS NEARLY 
IMPOSSIBLE TO KEEP UP ON THE TRENDS 
IN THE WORLD OF ACCOUNTING IF YOU ARE 
NOT ENGAGED IN PRACTICE.
THUS, WHO BETTER TO HELP KEEP THE 
EXAM RELEVANT AND ENSURE NEW CPAS 
ARE READY FOR THE REAL WORLD 
ACCOUNTING THAN CONTEMPORARY 
ACCOUNTANTS THEMSELVES.
WITH THE ADDITIONAL HELP OF 
CPAS AROUND THE COUNTRY, THE 
TEST WILL GAIN A NECESSARY 
UPDATE THAT WILL INCLUDE UP-TO-DATE 
SKILLS AND IDEAS.
THIS WILL STEER CPA CANDIDATES 
TOWARDS STUDYING RELEVANT 
MATERIAL AND PREPARE THEM 
SUFFICIENTLY FOR THE EVER-CHANGING 
WORLD OF PUBLIC ACCOUNTING.
