July 9, 2026 Board Meeting – Proposed Rules

The Texas State Board of Public Accountancy (Board) proposes the following changes to the rules:

• 511.57. Courses in an Accounting Concentration to Take the UCPAE.
  A typographical error misnamed the reference as a subparagraph when it should have been identified as a paragraph.
• 523.147. Sponsor Review Program.
  To maintain the competence of Texas licensees offering accounting services, the Board’s Presiding Officer currently appoints three committee members responsible for monitoring Board approved Sponsors offering continuing education to licensees. The Board staff has been administratively monitoring the Sponsor Review Program. By the staff working directly with the sponsors, concerns are addressed immediately and more efficiently. The Sponsor Review Program Committee is no longer necessary.
