Why take FER's ethics course?
Because our course focuses on a CPA’s ethical responsibilities in ALL areas of practice under the California State Board of Public Accountancy rules and regulations. We cover ethical responsibilities in public practice including audit, review and compilation, taxation, and consulting services, as well as ethical standards for CPAs in private industry and government. The Sarbanes-Oxley Act of 2002 and recent reform legislation in California raises the ethical bar for CPAs in dealings with corporate management and the board of directors. Widely-publicized ethical lapses by companies and their auditors bring into question whether CPAs are committed to serve the public interest. Through case analyses and discussions, this course emphasizes how to meet your professional responsibilities, limit legal liability, better service your clients, and honor the public trust.
