In January 2024, the AICPA launched CPA Evolution, a completely updated CPA Exam to better prepare students for modern accounting. To align with the new exam and ensure students were prepared to pass, Becker completely updated our CPA Exam Review. We took this opportunity to implement changes and updates that would better serve our students and provide an elevated user experience. This included developing over 900 videos with a new format, style, and shorter run times.
Recently, Becker and our partner, Harbinger Group, won the Brandon Hall Group™ Bronze Award for excellence in the "Best Use of Video for Learning" category for the CPA program.
“We are so excited to receive this Brandon Hall award and humbled to be recognized by industry experts. Becoming a CPA has been the biggest influential success factor of my career, and it has been an honor to help others achieve this goal. With CPA Evolution, we focused thousands of hours into redesigning our concept videos to incorporate more visual elements, organize our videos into shorter and concise topics, and summarize complex concepts into simpler terms,” said Lauren Chin, CPA, Becker Director of Curriculum.
"With our updated video-based library, learning can be more efficient and easier to digest. It means the world to us to be recognized for providing aspiring CPAs with the best learning materials possible, so they can prep effectively and efficiently to pass the CPA Exam and thrive in their careers."
