Why Hire a CPA?
Professional Accountability

Looking for an accountant? Here’s another reason to hire a CPA:

There are specific measures in place to ensure professional accountability.

Professional accountability is about protecting the public by ensuring that professionals practice in a sound and ethical manner and are held accountable for any deficiencies in their activities.

As CPAs, one way we are held accountable is through a practice inspection at least once every three years by CPA Manitoba (our local governing body). This ensures we are compliant with professional standards by assessing our quality controls and reviewing a random sampling of our engagement files. We are then provided feedback for improvement, and if there are any deficiencies, they are addressed.

Before hiring an accountant, we encourage you to consider hiring a CPA. Heartland CPAs successfully completed our most recent practice inspection by CPA Manitoba in December 2019.
