Frequently Asked Questions

All three, in full, inside the same $199/mo subscription as the CPA Exam: CMA Parts 1 and 2 with essay-scenario practice, all three parts of the IRS Special Enrollment Examination for the EA, and all three parts of the Certified Internal Auditor exam. No add-ons, no bundle price, no upgrade. See the CMA, EA and CIA pages.

No — and that is much of the point. The IRS sets the requirements: a PTIN, passing all three SEE parts, and a suitability check. None of them is an accounting degree, which makes the EA the fastest route into professional tax practice for a career changer.

The Institute of Internal Auditors decides and publishes the current requirements at theiia.org — education, experience, a character reference, and the program window. Read it before you register rather than after.

Honestly, it depends which. If the CIA alone is what you want, a dedicated CIA review from a provider who does nothing else is a perfectly good answer. This subscription earns its price when you are climbing more than one ladder — and most people in this field eventually are.

Of course. Plenty of management accountants, controllers and analysts have no interest in public practice. Nothing obliges you to open the CPA sections.

The Institute of Management Accountants decides that and publishes the current requirements at imanet.org — membership, education, and professional experience, with a window in which the experience can be completed. Read it before you register rather than after.

More than most people expect, and the engine tracks it concept by concept rather than by assumption. REG carries into SEE Parts 1 and 2 almost outright. FAR carries into CIA Part 3 financial analysis. AUD carries into CIA Parts 1 and 2. Cost behavior, variance analysis and ethics overlap between the CPA Exam and the CMA in both directions. You prove a concept once and it counts everywhere it applies.

Whichever fits your situation. Some candidates take the CMA first because two parts is a shorter commitment than four sections; some pick it up after licensure. The subscription does not have an opinion, and Autopilot plans around the dates you actually book.

$199/mo month to month, or $159/mo on annual billing ($1,908 a year, saving $480). That single subscription covers all three CPA Core sections, all three Disciplines, CMA Parts 1 and 2, all three EA (SEE) parts, and all three CIA parts — four credential ladders at one price.

Yes, anytime from your account. Paid access runs to the end of the period you have already paid for, then stops. Canceling between sections and resubscribing when you are ready for the next one is a normal way to use this.

The complete Accounting Fundamentals course — debits through to financial statements — permanently, at no cost. Free courses run the full adaptive engine; what a free account limits is which courses you can enroll in, never what happens inside them.

Resubscribe at the price published at that time. Your profile, proficiency and history are preserved, so you resume rather than restart.

No. Each product in the family is an independent subscription — no bundles, no stacking. See the whole family at accelastudy.ai or on the Other Products page.

When it opens. Join the waitlist and we will email you the day subscriptions open. Nothing is charged before then, and the plan buttons on the pricing page are deliberately inert until it opens.
