What’s required?Candidates must pass a rigorous, four-part exam called the “Uniform CPA Examination” that is prepared and administered by the AICPA (American Institute of Certified Public Accountants).
Candidates must also meet educational, professional, and other specific requirements to the state or jurisdiction in which they intend to be licensed to practice. These requirements are determined by the appropriate State Board of Accountancy. If you do not meet those requirements, Morgan International has a solution for you. Contact our office to get a one-on-one consultation session and determine your eligibility.
The CPA Exam is now offered in select locations worldwide (including: Bahrain, Kuwait, Lebanon and the UAE). The CPA Exam has also been transformed to include major structure, functionality and format changes (computer-based testing).
To help prepare individuals who are ready to take on this challenge in their careers, Morgan International is proud to deliver the CPA Program developed by Becker Professional Education.
What does CPA really mean?The CPA serves to protect public interest by ensuring that only qualified individuals become licensed CPAs. CPAs typically begin their careers in public accounting to gain exposure, before expanding their reach into a role that covers all aspects of business from performance to growth strategy. Today’s CPAs are leaders, as well as close collaborators in high-profile organizational initiatives.
Why become a CPA?Because being a CPA is more about professional freedom and opening doors to international opportunities than it is about number crunching. Apart from ensuring financial security, a CPA also ensures flexibility, by bringing in more choices for employment in a variety of diverse fields across the private, public, government, and non-profit sectors, in an unlimited number of industries. Some CPAs go on to become entrepreneurs, professors, or consultants, some rise to positions in upper management, while others transition to markedly different careers. Every company needs an accountant, and with a present shortage of certified professionals, CPA skills are even more in demand, at an increasingly lucrative salary...all around the world.

Audit and Assurance
Tax Accounting and Planning
Financial Analysis and Planning
Forensic and Environmental Accounting
International Accounting
General Accounting
Business Development and Acquisition
