Professional Ethics Exam

Don't forget about your Ethics Exam!

In addition to passing the Uniform CPA Exam, CPA candidates must pass the AICPA Professional Ethics Exam, which is administered as an online self-study course.*

The course may be purchased through the WSCPA at a $40 discount off the AICPA non-member rate (for WSCPA members—scroll down for free membership offer).  This course is administered by the AICPA and questions related to certificates or content should be directed to 800-634-6780 (press option 1).

*Please note that the following state boards have their own ethics exam and do not accept this course for their licensing/certification requirements: CA, FL, NC, PA, and TX. We recommend that you check with your state board of accountancy for its specific ethics exam/course requirements.
