Gaining accounting experience is a necessary component of earning
your CPA certificate. In Minnesota, you must gain one year of
experience in addition to meeting the other requirements for
becoming a CPA which includes passing the CPA exam, completing 150
college credit hours, and passing the self-study ethics exam.
Your one year of experience can be in:
- Public accounting
- Industry
- Education
- Government
In order for your work experience to count towards earning your
certificate, it must be verified by a CPA.
Can
I work while sitting for the exam?
Yes!
In Minnesota you can work while sitting for the CPA exam and count
that time towards your one year of experience. Paid internships can
also be applied to your one year of experience. Unpaid internships
do not count towards your one year of experience, however.
