The designation Certified Practising Accountant also exists as an accounting designation in the United Kingdom, unrelated to the Australian CPA designation. Accountants in the United Kingdom may obtain the Certified Practising Accountant designation through becoming a member of the Institute of Certified Practising Accountants (ICPA). The ICPA does not require its members to have achieved or possess any formal post-secondary accountancy education at the pre-qualification stage. It does however require a prospective member to have relevant accountancy experience.

Famous quotes containing the word context:

    The hippie is the scion of surplus value. The dropout can only claim sanctity in a society which offers something to be dropped out of—career, ambition, conspicuous consumption. The effects of hippie sanctimony can only be felt in the context of others who plunder his lifestyle for what they find good or profitable, a process known as rip-off by the hippie, who will not see how savagely he has pillaged intricate and demanding civilizations for his own parodic lifestyle.
    Germaine Greer (b. 1939)
