In order to resolve a disciplinary proceeding before a Panel of CPABC’s Disciplinary Committee concerning professional misconduct alleged against them, the CPA Candidate has agreed to the voluntary suspension of their enrollment as a student of the Organization of Chartered Professional Accountants of British Columbia (“CPABC”) for a period of 12 months, between June 11, 2021 and June 10, 2022.
They have irrevocably admitted to breaching numerous provisions of the CPABC Code of Professional Conduct, by submitting a false and misleading application for membership in CPABC that failed to disclose that they had plagiarized an assignment in the CPA Professional Education Program; deceiving two members of CPABC who had signed the Candidate’s false and misleading application for membership in CPABC; lying to CPABC’s professional staff about why they had made a false and misleading application for membership in CPABC; and, making a false and misleading statement to the CPA Western School of Business.
During the 12 month period of the suspension of their enrollment as a student of CPABC, they will be ineligible to apply for membership in CPABC or in any other provincial CPA body.
