The MACPA is always looking for new continuing education programs to offer members. Through direct member suggestions, examining CPE evaluations and turning to outside resources for ideas, the Association made many new additions to its continuing education roster.

Among topics that ranked high on the Association’s radar was FIN 48 — the Financial Accounting Standards Board's (FASB) recent pronouncement concerning accounting for uncertainty in income taxes. Multiple courses have been added to help educate members on these important changes in tax documentation and disclosure requirements.

Changes in Risk Assessment command attention due to the substantial impact on how audits are performed. The Association promptly scheduled courses to answers questions on the multitude of changes in Risk Assessment.

Additionally, courses geared toward accountants in the construction industry have been added; Adapting QuickBooks for Construction and Estimating Cost-to-Complete for Accountants. New courses on Microsoft 2007 and the New Form 990 are all a part of the latest MACPA continuing education course catalog, as well.

Feel free to search the online course catalog for topics of interest. If you do not see a particular topic you’d like to learn more about, please let the MACPA Continuing Education department know.
