The American Institute of CPAs has expanded their website,
The U.S. CPA exam is now administered internationally as a response to escalating demand, which saw more than 10,000 international candidates travel to the U.S. for CPA licensure in 2010, the last year before international administration.
“As international candidates continue to sit for the CPA exam in greater numbers, we want to offer a resource to them which not only provides information and tools regarding the process for registering and studying for the exam, but also shares information with them about the exciting career opportunities being a CPA offers,” said Scott Moore, AICPA senior manager, college and university initiatives, in a statement. “Expanding our award-winning This Way to CPA site to allow international students to register is a logical way to accomplish that goal.”
