The story of Becker Academy

From over 60 years of CPA Exam review experience, we’ve seen that some aspiring CPAs would benefit from a deeper understanding of essential accounting concepts before beginning exam review. With a solid foundation, they would find more immediate success in CPA Exam review and, ultimately, on the CPA Exam. 

From this insight, Becker Academy was born.
