4 Reasons Why On-Demand CPE Is the Best Option for Busy CPAs

The phone is ringing. It’s a client with a last-minute request. It’s your boss asking about that report. It’s your mom, whose computer is acting up. It’s your daughter, who is late for her soccer game.

Welcome to the life of a CPA. Whether it’s tax season or budget time, the job can seem to consume every minute of every day, and when the workday ends, you need to be there for family and friends.

Plus, along comes CPE. In the past, CPAs needed a crowbar to wedge continuing professional education (CPE) into their busy schedules. There were classes to attend, tests to take and compliance to monitor.

Fortunately, online CPE is growing, but not every online CPE provider is committed to delivering courses that dovetail effortlessly with life and work. MasterCPE offers a trusted solution with flexible, portable learning that helps CPAs, accounting and tax professionals earn CPE credits efficiently, affordably and on the go.

MasterCPE Offers More Than Traditional CPE Courses

When you go into an ice cream shop, you want more choices than vanilla and chocolate. You want something that suits your mood — an indulgent rocky road, a refreshing teaberry or a mix of favorites.

MasterCPE is an online learning provider with an overflowing menu of course choices. Our diverse catalog goes well beyond traditional accounting and tax topics.

Why Do Choices Matter?

  • Access to a wide range of topics, including industry-specific skills and niche areas, means that you aren’t limited to choices preselected by someone else.
  • A wide selection makes sure that you find courses directly relevant to your specific needs and career goals.
  • Greater availability puts courses on your learning slate that align with your personal interests and professional growth.

Example: Learn what you need to know, when you need to know it. MasterCPE doesn’t wait for hot-button issues to cool down before turning them into CPE courses, taught by experts in their fields. Connect to “Blockchain: An Introduction for CPAs.” Become comfortable with “2025 Tax Updates: Individual and Business.” Sharpen your eye for “Fraud and Public Corruption.”

Learn how to properly record and analyze financial transactions with “Analysis and Uses of Financial Statements” to ensure financial statements accurately reflect a company’s financial position, growth potential and profitability.

These are just a few unique and timely courses offered by MasterCPE, meant to enhance your understanding of the basics or take your knowledge and skills in new directions.

Instant Results That Keep You on Track

So, you finally completed a course and took the exam. The weeks of studying are over.
However, there’s one problem with some CPE providers — just when you’re ready to move on, you have to wait for the results. Time ticks away, undoing all the work and planning you put into fitting learning into your busy schedule.

MasterCPE delivers real-time feedback and instant grading. You know where you stand as soon as you finish the course, giving you the confidence to rack up those CPE credits and implement what you learned.

How Do Instant Results Enhance Learning?

  • Immediate access to course results and certificates streamlines compliance. The time you might have spent waiting for and logging your results is better spent on your career and family.
  • Instant feedback is motivating, and motivation keeps you engaged in your learning.
  • MasterCPE is registered with the National Association of State Boards of Accountancy (NASBA) as a sponsor of continuing professional education on the National Registry of CPE Sponsors. Additionally, MasterCPE is an approved sponsor of CPE credits for those individuals enrolled to practice before the IRS as Enrolled Agents.

Example: Every MasterCPE course culminates in a final exam that’s included in the subscription and taken on the website. With MasterCPE, you receive a grade as soon as you complete the exam. If you passed, you can view and print the course certificate on the spot for immediate entry into your CPE record. There’s no waiting to demonstrate your compliance or share the good news with family and friends.

Learn at Your Own Pace — Anytime, Anywhere

Here they come – your CPE credit requirements. Will they fit on a plate already overloaded with long work hours, family fun and responsibilities and time recharging with friends or taking a much-needed vacation?

With the flexibility and convenience of MasterCPE’s online learning platform, they will. The beauty of online learning is that you don’t have to carve out blocks of time. You can complete your credits while honoring your professional and personal obligations.

Why Get Credits Through MasterCPE’s Online Learning?

  • Access courses at any time and from anywhere. It’s easy to integrate learning into a busy schedule.
  • Keep your work-life balance under control by studying at your own pace and at your convenience.
  • Meet your CPE requirements quickly. MasterCPE’s streamlined process offers a user-friendly interface and self-study courses that maximize the use of your study time.

Example: It’s a beautiful day, and you want to step outside during lunch for a quick mental health break. With MasterCPE, you can bring along your laptop or tablet for a study session. Perhaps you’re on a layover, waiting for your flight or your child’s chorus concert doesn’t start for another 15 minutes. MasterCPE goes where you go and picks up where you left off, without disrupting or barging into your daily work and family obligations.

Maximize Your Learning Without Breaking the Bank

Budgets can provide discipline, forcing you to prioritize the things that are most important, but learning shouldn’t be limited by dollar signs. The best learning expands your horizons, builds your book of expertise and introduces you to intriguing new fields and specialties.

MasterCPE’s affordable, fixed-price structure makes learning endless. You don’t have to skip an interesting or useful course just because the money has dried up. You get exceptional value that grows with each course you take.

How Does Budget-Friendly Learning Make a Difference?

  • MasterCPE’s 12-month subscription opens unlimited access to hundreds of courses for just $179. Ethics courses are not included in the subscription.
  • A fixed subscription fee simplifies budgeting for CPE credits. There’s no need to worry about running out of funding before you’ve taken advantage of all the learning available.
  • Unlimited subscriptions offer a cost-effective solution for high-quality, up-to-date courses without the hassle of per-course fees.

Example: Every CPE strategy starts with the mandated subjects. Then, you add the courses that are necessary for your daily work, such as updates on legislative changes to tax laws. If you’re paying on a per-course basis or taking in-person seminars individually, the total spend climbs with each selection. Before long, you have hit your limit, and you haven’t even started exploring the courses that interest you or beckon you with an introduction to specialized skills that boost your career. With MasterCPE’s 12-month subscription plan, the spending cap is lifted. Take courses even if you don’t need the credits, and make learning fun.
