Colorado Revised Statutes Title 12. Professions and Occupations § 12-100-110. Approval of schools

Current as of January 01, 2025 | Updated by Findlaw Staff

(1) The board shall approve the accounting program of the schools that meet the following requirements:

(a) The school has a curriculum designed to give the candidate proficiency in those subjects in which the candidate must pass an examination to be licensed.

(b) The school shall have adequate equipment and resources, including suitable facilities for practical instruction and shall maintain an adequate professional library. It shall provide a sufficient number of full-time salaried instructors with satisfactory professional training. It shall provide a satisfactory major in accountancy and allied subjects. It shall require for admission the satisfactory completion of an approved four-year secondary school course of study or the equivalent.

(2) If any applicant is a graduate from a school that has not at the time of the filing of the application been approved by the board, the board may make an investigation to determine whether or not the school did, at the time of the applicant's attendance, meet the requirements set forth in subsection (1) of this section. If the board finds that the school did, at that time, meet the requirements set forth in that subsection, the board may approve the school as of the time of the applicant's graduation from the school.

(3) The board may, after a hearing, withdraw its approval of any school that fails to meet the requirements of the law and the standards of the board. The board shall give notice to the school complained against and shall hold a hearing on the complaint within a reasonable time after notice is given.

(4) Before disapproving any school for which approval is sought, the board shall give notice to the school of its contemplated action and shall hold a hearing within a reasonable time after notice is given, affording the school an opportunity to be heard.
