大家應該知道的是,USCPA考試有個“3E”,其中一個E,就是Ethic。在順利通過USCPA考試之后,想要申請執(zhí)照,就必須進行CPE后續(xù)教育,而這其中就有一個Professional Ethics exam。通過了這個考試,才能申請執(zhí)照。那么這個玩意到底怎么考?考試費用是多少呢?跟著高頓網校USCPA小編來了解一下。
 
雖然這個考試Professional Ethics exam有“Professional”的字眼,但是其實它并不難。它是全程自學的CPE中的一種,并且是開卷考試。當你收到課程學習的科目時,它還會提示你如何作答并告訴你如何將答案提交至申請的州會計委員會。
