Genuine Learning Blog: 2023 Trends Report

The AICPA issued their 2023 Trends report which provides data on trends related to supply and demand for accounting students as well as trends related to the CPA exam. The report continues to show a drop in bachelor’s and master’s degrees with an increase in demand from firms. The report is really helpful as the visuals show the trends across decades to provide perspective!
