Professional conduct and ethical behavior are really the backbone of the entire accounting and auditing profession.

Through case studies and other examples, the course will highlight pertinent LA rules as well as compare and contrast these rules to those of other regulatory agencies, such as the AICPA, GAO, PCAOB, and SEC. The course will further address the similarities and differences between the Code requirements for CPAs in public accounting and industry, including the threats to independence inherent in both. The course will also cover the implications of the recently proposed and effective independence interpretations, including those related to a CPA's responsibility to address and report on known or suspected noncompliance with laws and regulations. The primary objectives of this course are to educate CPAs regarding ethics and ethical behavior; review, emphasize, and convey the intent of ethical standards and responsibilities relating to a CPA's performance of professional accounting services; and help CPAs apply ethical judgment in the context of the public interest through the use of illustrative case studies.
