Specifically, the bill replaces "business law and taxation" with "taxation and regulation" as the required examination topics for obtaining a CPA certificate. Additionally, the bill removes language related to "grading papers" from the existing statute. The change suggests a shift in the focus of the CPA certification process, potentially updating the examination to reflect more current professional standards or knowledge areas deemed more relevant to contemporary accounting practice.
