The Oregon Board of Accountancy is proud to announce that Gov. Kotek has signed Senate Bill 797 into law.  The primary feature of this bill is to expand the pathway options available to those wishing to become CPAs while protecting CPA mobility.  Under SB 797, three pathways will be available by January 1, 2026: A Bachelor’s degree plus two years of experience, a master’s degree plus one year of experience and the current 150-semester hour with a bachelor’s degree and one year of experience pathway. All options require passage of the CPA exam.

Please note that neither the Board, nor its staff or counsel, are permitted to provide legal advice or advisory opinions, including interpretations of the law or regulations as well as any indication as to how the Board would vote on any given case or scenario.  You are invited to contact a private attorney or professional organization for advice or guidance.

We want to know what we're doing well and how we can improve.
