CPE Approval

The UACPA acts as the CPE Registry for Utah through an agreement with the Department of Professional Licensing (DOPL) . The UACPA CPE Approval Review Committee collects and reviews applications to ensure that courses meet the requirements for Continuing Professional Education as outlined in the Utah State Accountancy Act and rules .

Although obtaining CPE course approval is not mandatory, it is a highly recommended option which gives you a clear advantage. As DOPL’s CPE Advisory Committee reviews the CPE compliance reports from licensed CPAs, those courses with approval numbers are recognized as complying with the CPE rules. It does not guarantee that you will not be audited, but it does give you peace of mind knowing that the courses you have reported are satisfactory under the CPE rules.

  • CPE Approval Applications will be reviewed and returned within seven business days of submission.
