Connecticut CPAs have a considerable responsibility to the public, their profession, the organizations they serve, and themselves. They must act with integrity, honesty, and fairness. Ethical behavior is essential for fulfilling this duty and maintaining public trust. Thus, adhering to ethical standards is both a professional obligation and a legal requirement. This course meets the four-hour ethics requirement for Connecticut CPAs within each three-year license renewal period.
The course begins with a presentation of individual ethical responsibility, including the concepts of ethics and morals, the process of ethical reasoning, and the importance of ethical codes. It demonstrates how to apply the two most commonly used ethical theories for resolving ethical dilemmas. The course is also designed to help you maintain knowledge of current ethical and other regulatory requirements. It covers the most recent version of the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct, along with the conceptual framework approach to coping with ethical dilemmas, and a review of key provisions of Connecticut Laws and Rules governing the practice of public accountancy. Numerous examples are included to help you have a good understanding of ethical standards and apply ethical judgment to interpret the rules.
