There are numerous pre-approved training offices in Bermuda. A pre-approved training office refers to an organization or employer that has been approved by ASB and CPA Bermuda to offer structured and supervised training programs for individuals pursuing the Canadian CPA designation. These organizations must meet standards and guidelines to ensure that candidates receive the necessary practical experience and mentorship to fulfill the practical experience requirements (PER) for CPA Certification.

Pre-Approved Program Route Offices

Pre-Approved Program Route (PPR) refers to an employer training program that is approved by a provincial professional body in advance of hiring any specific employee. These programs have been specifically designed to provide CPA candidates all their required practical experience within 30 months.

Please note that practical-experience requirements for public accounting are, for the most part, not additional requirements. They are specific choices you can make within the general requirements for CPA certification.

If you have any questions about CPA practical-experience requirements or PPR organizations, please contact the CPA Atlantic School of Business.
