CPA Evolution goes into effect in January 2024 and introduces a new CPA Exam structure. In 2024 the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA) and the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) launched CPA Evolution - a new CPA Exam format designed to reduce skill gaps, create flexibility, and provide greater opportunities for accountants to develop specialized knowledge in key areas.

The CPA Exam now includes three Core Exams that focus on knowledge and skills universal to all CPAs that every candidate must take and pass.

You must also choose a Discipline from three options. A Discipline builds on one of the Core subjects, allowing candidates to gain more specialized knowledge in the area they are more likely to work in.
