Posted on Aug 12 2011
MANGILAO, Guam—The University of Guam in partnership with Becker Professional Education will offer the Becker US CPA Exam Review Program at the UOG campus this fall. The two organizations signed a three-year agreement in July 2011.
“This is an exciting opportunity for Guam residents who want to earn their CPA designation,” said Dr. Anita Borja-Enriquez, dean of the School of Business and Public Administration. “This partnership provides an affordable pathway for individuals to prepare to take the CPA exam, which is the preeminent certification for accounting professionals, and earn graduate accounting credits necessary towards US CPA licensure. Today, CEOs prefer to hire certified public accountants to oversee finances so this is an ideal opportunity for UOG graduates with degrees in accounting and finance to take their professional skills to the next level.”
The Becker US CPA Exam Review Program includes four parts. Upon registration and payment at UOG, Becker will ship course materials directly to the students. The agreement with Becker provides participants with a significant discount on the course and exam preparation materials.
Before the CPA Review Program begins, University of Guam faculty will first complete the mandatory Becker training course. Training for faculty with CPAs will be held today. Once they complete the training and are approved to teach by Becker Professional Education, the Becker CPA Review Program schedule will be announced.
