About the Course

Ohio CPAs are required to complete 3 hours of ethics CPE every triennial cycle, specifically covering "Professional Standards & Responsibilities" (PSR). The course must be approved directly by the Accountancy Board of Ohio — a general NASBA-approved ethics course alone doesn’t satisfy this requirement.

This course covers the laws and rules under Chapter 4701 of the Ohio Revised Code and Chapter 4701 of the Ohio Administrative Code in detail, along with the AICPA Code of Professional Conduct. Case studies are used throughout to ground the material in real situations rather than just rule recitation.
