Amidst all of the PCAOB leadership changes, the QC 1000 implementation requirement is still set for December 2006 – but there are still a lot of questions around what it will look like when all is said and done.
Drew Carrick, @TheRappingCPA , and host of Qualified Opinions, alongside co-host Chris Vanover, President & Founder of CPAClub, sit down with PCAOB Specialist Brian Yujuico, VP of CPAClub, to discuss the fate of QC 1000, the future of the PCAOB, and what firms need to know as they approach this mandatory implementation deadline.
Powered by CPAClub, this very first episode of Qualified Opinions aired live on Earmark, and is available there for CPE credit. New episodes every first and third Wednesday of each month.
