NASBA RELEASES LATEST CPA EXAM DATA

Nashville, Tenn. -- The National Association of State Boards of Accountancy has released its annual book on the performance of CPA Exam candidates, presenting comprehensive statistical data from all four testing windows of the exam last year. The latest edition features a new design, along with several enhanced reporting options designed to meet the needs of various constituencies, including academics, researchers, CPA firms, state boards and prospective students. Among the new inclusions are a two-page dashboard displaying demographics, residency, degree type and a candidate comparison for each jurisdiction represented in the book. The featured tables also provide a more granular view of event and performance data.

This year, NASBA is making the publication available several months earlier than in prior years, due in part to the association's use of new technologies that make the process of tracking and tabulating the data more efficient.

Uniform CPA Examination: Candidate Performance is available in paperback for $120, and as an e-book for $100. Standard online reports and customized reports are also available by special request. For more, visit www.nasba.org.
