CPA student excels in national exam

A Summerland CPA student has passed the multi-day national Common Final Exam.

A Summerland CPA student has passed the multi-day national Common Final Exam, administered by the CPA Western School of Business in September.

Juergen Krieger of Summerland was among the 331 students from B.C. and the Yukon who successfully completed the exam.

“On behalf of the CPABC Board of Directors and CPABC, I congratulate these students for successfully passing the CFE,” said Olin Anton, chair of Chartered Professional Accountants of British Columbia. “This cohort represents the first graduating class from the CPA Professional Education Program. We welcome them to the ranks of B.C.’s chartered professional accountants.”

In order to become designated, students must complete rigorous course work, pass the CFE, and fulfill relevant practical experience requirements. The national CFE ensures all Canadian chartered professional accountants meet the same high standards, which are recognized nationally and internationally.

The school of business delivers the nationally-developed CPA professional education program in Canada’s western region.

Throughout the program, CPA candidates develop the competencies expected of professional accountants, developing technical skills and enabling competencies as they grow in professionalism and leadership.
