Certified Public Account (CPA) is the title given to accountant professionals who have passed the Uniform Certified Public Accountant Examination (CPA Exam). The CPA designation is granted by the state boards, and not by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants (AICPA). CPAs perform many varied services, including financial audits (assuring and attesting that businesses are following the Generally Accepted Accounting Principles, or GAAP), tax preparation, forensic accounting, and consulting.
