Ooooo. I just joined a few months ago.
join again using a fake name.
Use my name so I don't have to join.
Thanks.
I just joined and I've never even done accounting…
If anyone here on OzBargain wants their tax done cheap, PM me…
jv… made a joke?
Only once I've completed your tax return.
ZING!
Take @DogGunn to the burns unit
why don't you +1 the deal if you used it..
Read the voting guidelines…
Wow, just when I thought they couldn't get any tackier (advertising so much and jacking course fees to cover it, letting students with appalling accounting knowledge in and passing them). I'm not a CA dumping on them, I'm a CPA with 7+ years PQE in a senior commercial accounting role.
Appreciate the OP's effort, but any budding accounting students out there - don't rush into it just because of this promo. For most people work pays for this sort of thing anyway.
Sounds like Computer Science :p
The ACS equivalent in the accounting world. We all know ACS have done SFA for us other than doing those migration assessments to screw us all over.
Have to agree with you, I also have 7 years PQE in a Senior Public Practice accounting role. I have found that since Alex Malley and co have taken over, the focus has been on building his own personal brand, to the detriment of focusing on far more important issues such as tax reform, advancing members interests etc. I have no idea how a billboard in NYC promoting the 'Naked CEO' helps the general membership and advances our cause. The lack of transparency regarding board and senior management remuneration is another concern. There is a growing desire for change within the rank and file members, I urge any current CPA members to have a look at this website for further information. http://cpamembers.org/index.php
I thought the law soc was bad enough (same issues - re: Can't speak english? Does not matter - become a solicitor and do court work today!), and thought the aim was that if you let anyone join this increase the fees which in turn increases management remuneration, but this is the cherry on top - a personal branding campaign for the CEO - nice if you can get it.
You said $342.5 saving, I read $162.5 unwanted spend.
Harsh maybe 342.5 less unwanted spend haha
I left. They did nothing for me. I just kept paying my fees for years….
Same in here. Become an ASA but make more money working in IT than my CPA accountant friends.
make more money working in IT
If you want to make even more money, then do IT for CPA's and charge them in 6 minute blocks…
What is ASA stand for?
Apply for the membership and you will find out
first rule of ASA club…..
Associate CPA member. When you haven't paid enough money to sit the exams yet.
I studied "Business Ethics and the Law" in my undergrad and it is now asking me to enrol in "CPA Program Ethics & Governance fee 2017 Sem 2 $1070.00" I also studied financial ethics in my Masters program, so find this somehow… Unethical? :P
facepalm Reread the program and found that it is a compulsory subject but it under the URL for foundation exams? https://www.cpaaustralia.com.au/cpa-program/foundation-exams
do you think all cpa is working as accountant? is it the same problem as visa 457 holders?
CPA = Can Pass Anyone
need more moneys to pay for someone's face to appear in advertisements and TV shows
Passing doesn't mean anything. Some CPAs are still doing accounting entry level jobs, and some are with C-level titles. You do CPA because you love accounting. CPA is not a key to a gold mine.
Australian CPA is just accounting kool aid
If you are going to throw money at a professional body, at least choose CA or AICPA
EDIT: the "need more moneys" comment is directed at their business model of increasing revenue from membership fees and then blowing it on huge renumeration increases and advertising budgets
