NASBA is constantly working to reach 100% participation in the ALD and CPAverify from all 55 State CPA Licensing Boards. NASBA and the ALD Task Force Committee have developed a game plan for reaching that goal that helps put a priority structure in place as well as methodology for breaking up the project into measureable segments.

Goal #1

Help remaining State Boards that have agreed to participate in CPAverify to resolve any outstanding data items that are required to make their state data live on CPAverify.org

Total states in this target category = 6

Goal #2

Obtain final approval to participate in CPAverify from State Boards that are already fully implemented and have live data on the ALD, but have not yet granted approval for CPAverify.org

Total states in this target category = 6

Goal #3

Obtain approval to participate in CPAverify from State Boards that have already approved participation in the ALD, but do not yet have live data on the ALD and have not yet granted approval for CPAverify.org

Total states in this target category = 20

Goal #4

Work with State Boards that are already fully implemented and have live data on the ALD that are not currently including disciplinary action information, to start including disciplinary action information

Total States in this target category = 22

Other initiatives that are always on top of mind for the ALD are implementing states that have agreed to participate and increasing the number of states that provide the necessary data for linking individual records from state to state and cleaning up any outstanding data inconsistencies or structural issues in order to create a clean, useable and valuable database for the profession.
