Event Details: The Association of Government Accountants, the Foundation for Accounting Education, and the Institute of Management Accountants are pleased to announce a seminar on February 11,
2010 on the changes in the NYS accountancy law and a portion of the required Ethics Foundation Course.

The new accountancy law has dramatically changed how the CPA profession is regulated in New York State, including CPAs in public practice, industry and government. The law requires that all individuals practicing public accountancy or using the title
certified public accountant or public accountant, or the designation CPA or PA must register with the State Education Department and meet the Continuing Professional Education (CPE) requirements.

This seminar addresses this important issue and will include:
• An introduction of the topic from the Executive Secretary of the State Board for Public Accountancy
• An overview of the new law and its effect on CPAs in New York State
• Amendments to the Regulations of the Commissioner of Education relating to the licensure requirements for CPAs
• The new expanded scope of practice for CPAs, and issues relating to the experience requirement for licensure
• The new registration and mandatory CPE requirements
• Limited permits/temporary practice permits/nonattest mobility
• Mandatory quality review of attest services
• Outreach program to all CPAs practicing in New York

This two-hour CPE Ethics component covers the topics of a portion of the foundation course in professional ethics, including ethical foundations and ethical guidance for New York State
CPAs. Ethical foundations topics to be covered are: An introduction to ethical concepts, the psychology of moral development, judgment and values, the sociology of professions,
virtue and the role of rules of ethics, public expectations of CPA’s responsibilities, and ethical dilemmas. Ethical guidance topics considered will include: the role of the Office of Professions in New York, New York State rules on ethics, AICPA and NYSSCPA Codes of Professional Conduct, comparison of state rules and professional codes, enforcement of rules on ethics.
