Abstract/Summary

This study aims to determine the significance and effectiveness of the current Continuing Professional Education Program in meeting the demands of an accountant's profession.

The primary source of data for this study will be the product of all the survey questionnaires and interviews conducted by the researches. Data collected will be presented in tables, graphs and text forms. It will be followed by data analysis of results obtained from the respondents presented in a manner showing the segregation of views of accountants from different fields.

The results of this study show that most accountants realize the significance of the Continuing Professional Education program established by the CPE Council. However, majority of the respondents doubt the effectiveness of the current program due to a variety of reasons.

Thus, the researchers conclude that the current CPE Program is unable to effectively meet the needs and demands of an accountant's profession. To address this problem, the researchers recommend that the Professional Regulation Commission should undertake a thorough assessment of the present program and modify such to better suit the needs of a practicing CPA.
