• Must take a minimum of 20 hours per calendar year
  
• CPE must be completed on a calendar year basis
  
• A minimum of 2 hours annually must be in the area of Professional Ethics
  PLEASE NOTE: Because our specific #4750: Ethics and Professional Conduct for Oklahoma CPAs course does not change that much on an annual basis, it is advised that the licensee not take the same ethics course two years in a row. Board regulations state that the requirement may be met by courses on ethical codes in jurisdictions other than Oklahoma or general ethics courses. Therefore the following courses also qualify for the Oklahoma Ethics requirement: #4200, #4205, or #4325. Other state specific courses also apply for those CPAs that are dual licensed.
