What it would have done
Summary by the , the Legislature's nonpartisan drafting office. It's their wording, not ours.
Under current law, a person may be qualified to receive a certificate as a certified public accountant from the Accounting Examining Board if, among other requirements, the person completes at least 150 semester hours with an accounting concentration at an accredited bachelor's degree-granting institution of higher education. This bill reduces that requirement to 120 semester hours. However, under the bill, if the board grants a certificate as a certified public accountant to a person who has completed at least 150 semester hours with an accounting concentration, the certificate the board grants to that person must reflect that the person completed that number of semester hours.
