The CPA Exam will evolve in January 2024 to an exam structure containing three new 'disciplines': Business Analysis and Reporting (BAR), Information Systems and Controls (ISC), and Tax Compliance and Planning (TCP).
CPA candidates will be allowed to select one of these disciplines for testing on their examination beginning in 2024. The discipline selected will replace the BEC section presently tested on the current exam. The content of the new exam's core sections -- AUDIT, FAR, and REG -- will be similar to comparably named sections now tested on the current exam.
It is worthy of special note that 'data and technology' will be assessed on all core sections of the new exam as well as on the new discipline sections. It is also noteworthy that each exam section will continue to last four hours and use multiple choice questions and tasked-based simulations for testing, a design consistent with the current exam.
