Compare your options

CPA Course vs Other Certifications

Many learners compare the CPA Course with self-study and general accounting degrees; this comparison highlights the strengths of structured CPA training with EduDelphi.

Criteria This Course
CPA Course
Alternative 1
Self-Study Only
Alternative 2
General Accounting Degree
Primary focus 100% CPA exam-focused (FAR, AUD, REG, BEC) with structured syllabus and mocks. Depends on your own plan, materials and discipline. Broad academics in accounting and business, not CPA-specific.
Best suited for Professionals who want guided, outcome-driven CPA preparation and faster exam success. Highly self-motivated learners comfortable managing everything alone. Students seeking a general academic qualification without a specific CPA focus.
Exam structure Aligned to the 4-section US CPA exam with MCQs, TBSs and written tasks where applicable. No formal structure; may or may not mirror the CPA exam format accurately. University-style term exams that do not follow the CPA exam blueprint.
Time to complete Typically 12–18 months to clear all four papers with planned batches. Varies widely based on self-discipline and access to resources. Usually 3–4 years for bachelor’s and 1–2 years for master’s degrees.
Career outcomes Strong fit for CPA roles in audit, taxation, financial reporting and senior finance positions. Good only if you manage to clear CPA independently and build your own experience. Provides broad business exposure but is less specialised than a CPA designation.
Guidance & support End-to-end advisory on eligibility, state board selection, registration and exam strategy. You research, interpret rules and plan your own path with no expert oversight. Generally limited to academic counselling, not CPA-specific guidance.
Pass promise / repeat support Free support and repeat classes till you pass, as per current policy. Not applicable. Not available as part of standard degree programmes.

Use this comparison to help you decide whether structured CPA training or self-study best fits your goals, budget and timeline.
