🎉Congratulations to all of the newly-licensed Texas CPAs! 👏 The Texas State Board of Public Accountancy held its biannual swearing-in ceremony for new CPAs on June 13, 2026, at the Palmer Events Center in Austin. Approximately 1,500 people attended. The candidates proudly walked across the stage to receive their hard-earned certificates from a Board member, cheered on by friends and family. We also recognized several outstanding candidates who passed all parts of the CPA Exam at the initial sitting within 12 months and had the 10 highest cumulative scores. CPAs who have been licensed in Texas for 50 years were also honored at the event. A heartfelt thanks to everyone who made this day so memorable!
