Self-Study CPE for CPAs Update
On March 20, 2020, Gov. Tom Wolf
suspended restrictions that limited the ability of licensees to take classes online or participate in distance-learning opportunities (

This permits all licensees to complete their continuing education online during the COVID-19 pandemic. The current biennial renewal period ends Dec. 31, 2021. Effective Feb. 29, 2020, the
GAO released a COVID-19 GAGAS CPE Alert that outlines a six-month grace period for completing Yellow Book CPE and a temporary waiver for the 20-hour annual requirement.
