Last March, I submitted my final PERT via EVR report and got the approval I had been working towards for months shortly after. Then, I released the PERT Guide and applied for my CPA membership. This is not necessarily the last PERT post on jenthinks but it will be the last post with examples from…
Two of my friends submitted their PERT reports and got them reviewed in about two weeks’ time (compared to the 9 weeks I waited last time) in June. Since I had been filling our my PERT report via EVR regularly for months now, I decided to submit what I have accumulated so far. It ended…
I have been saying I will write a post on CPA PERT Enabling Competency examples for weeks now. The more I want to write it, the more I dread writing it. I have a love/hate relationship with my PERT posts. On one end, I know how much you all appreciate me sharing my experiences with…
This post is going to be a little different than my usual CPA PERT post. I am not sharing tips, strategies or plans. I am merely sharing what happened when I found out that a particular technical competency I was planning on achieving Level 2 was no longer “possible.” As someone who writes about my…
I want to start this post by encouraging you to go to the next PERT Q&A session hosted by CPABC. As of now, there is 1 more session taking place in Feb 2021 (register here) but I am sure there will be more to come. I was lucky enough to attend a PERT session also…

Many of you found my blog through my CPA PERT guide which is one of the most read posts in 2020. I also know a lot of you are looking for examples for both enabling and technical competencies. I heard you because I struggled with that as well. I remembered looking everywhere online for some…

This post will walk you through the steps of what to do when you start a new job under the Experience Verification Route (EVR) for CPA PERT. If you haven’t read it already, I wrote an ultimate guide for CPA PERT before. I thought I got CPA PERT sort of figured out until I changed job…
In my last post, I shared the news that I finally got my first 7 months of CPA PERT recognized. I had been meaning to write a guide for CPA PERT via EVR for a while but I wanted to wait until I have a successful experience first. The time is finally here and I…
