Breaking the Barrier: AICPA and NASBA Overhaul the 150-Hour CPA Rule

Blood, Sweat & Balance Sheets

In this special emergency episode of Blood, Sweat & Balance Sheets, Mike and Stefan dive into the groundbreaking news shaking the accounting world — the AICPA and NASBA have proposed a radical shift in the 150-hour rule. 

A new "Competency-Based Experience Pathway" could eliminate the need for 30 additional credit hours, offering aspiring CPAs an alternative route through work experience and verified competencies. The guys explore:
- Implications for future CPAs
- How it addresses criticisms of diversity barriers
- What states are already doing to lead the change

Tune in for an in-depth discussion on what this could mean for the profession, and how you can make your voice heard before the December 6 comment deadline.
