Once registered as a candidate for the practice of the profession, the person may be admitted to the Graduate Program in Professional Practice (PPP), a 15-credit micro-program. The last candidates will be admitted to the PPP in the fall of 2013. They will have completed a recognized undergraduate degree or its equivalent by the summer of 2013 at the latest and will have met the admission requirements of the university selected for the PPP. The PPP and exams in the CGA program must be successfully completed and passed by the June 2015 semester at the latest. Otherwise, the new CPA education program will apply.
