Abstract
Description
By deciding to pursue your CPA designation, you have entered
the arena. It won’t be easy, but you aren’t alone. You have a
whole network of support from your classmates, colleagues,
online facilitators, session leaders, administrators, and resources,
including our collection of articles in this book.
This book is organized as follows. First, with items for those new
to CPA PEP. It then explains and examines elements of academic
integrity. The third part offers advice surrounding tutors and
mentors. Advice for after attaining one’s CPA designation and
career progression follows. Core and elective module advice
come next, then exam and case writing best practices. This book
concludes similar to your CPA education journey, with articles on
Capstones 1 and 2, and the Common Final Examination (CFE).
You may want to read this book from start to finish, front to back.
Or you could skim the table of contents and select a section or
story that may be helpful to you. I encourage you to treat this
book as a buffet; take what you want and leave the rest. Unlike a
buffet, feel free to share it with your friends and colleagues. As
adult learners in this graduate-level program, I sincerely hope our
book supports your brave efforts as you progress in your CPA
journey.
“We can choose courage or we can choose comfort,
but we can’t have both. Not at the same time.”
