SURREY — Surrey’s Attar Boparai is one of 10 B.C. students who made the National Honour Roll for their outstanding results on the multi-day national Common Final Examination (CFE) administered by the CPA Western School of Business (CPAWSB) in September 2019. One hundred and twenty-one other CPA students from Surrey also passed the exam.

“Congratulations to Attar and the other 121 Surrey CPA students for successfully passing the CFE,” said Ben Sander, FCPA, FCA, chair of CPABC. “On behalf of the CPABC Board of Directors and CPABC, I welcome them to the ranks of B.C.’s chartered professional accountants and wish them all the best as they move forward in their careers.”

In order to become designated, students must complete rigorous course work, pass the CFE, and fulfill relevant practical experience requirements. The national CFE ensures all Canadian chartered professional accountants meet the same high standards, which are recognized nationally and internationally.

“On behalf of everyone at the CPA Western School of Business, I extend my congratulations to the 1,002 candidates from British Columbia who passed the 2019 CFE,” said Steve Vieweg, FCPA, FCMA, CEO of the CPA Western School of Business. “They have developed and demonstrated technical and professional skills they will take with them into the next stage of their careers and beyond and I wish them the very best.”

CPAWSB delivers the nationally-developed CPA professional education program in Canada’s western region. Throughout the program, CPA candidates develop the competencies expected of professional accountants, developing technical skills and enabling competencies as they grow in professionalism and leadership.
