AI Summary
This bill proposes to create new pathways for individuals to become licensed as certified public accountants (CPAs) by offering additional combinations of education and experience that will make them eligible to take the CPA licensing exam, and it also establishes a "mobility practice privilege" which allows qualified CPAs licensed in other states to practice in Vermont without needing a separate Vermont license, by changing the definition of "principal place of business" to refer to "mobility" and updating the requirements for licensure by examination and by endorsement, as well as modifying the rules for mobility practice privileges and license renewal.
