IMPORTANT CPE NOTICE - March 2007

It has come to the attention of the Board that the American Center for Continuing Professional Education (ACCPE) is marketing self-study and on-line programming to West Virginia CPAs and that many of you have received brochures and discount coupons.  Several West Virginia CPAs have claimed CPE credit for self-study courses secured through the ACCPE.

Please be advised:  ACCPE is not approved by either NASBA or the AICPA as a CPE provider and therefore is not approved to offer CPE credit by the West Virginia Board of Accountancy.

If you claim CPE credit for any ACCPE courses, the credit will be denied.  Contact Brenda Turley, CPE Coordinator, at the Board office if you have any questions regarding this information.  (304) 558-3557
