Beginning in January, CPA candidates in Massachusetts will be able to sit for the CPA exam after completing 120 hours of college-level education, instead of the 150 hours that has been required to this point. The Massachusetts Society of CPAs is quite pleased with the change, which it hopes will encourage more prospective accountants to enter the field. (Yes, you still have to complete a total of 150 hours of course work to practice, but you can at least get the exams done first.)
The MSCPA has posted a series of FAQs about the change, and certification in general, on its Web site. Also, for some background on jobs in the Boston area, see the article we published in November.
