Enforcement NewsletterMay 2015The flow of information between Federal agencies and the Boards of Accountancy plays a major role in governing across jurisdiction lines and between multiple regulatory bodies. In order to effectively enforce the rules and regulations of the CPA profession, the Boards must often exchange information with the Internal Revenue Service (IRS), Securities and Exchange Commission (SEC) and the Department of Labor (DOL)—each of which have a unique role and process for such collaboration. To help Board regulators best navigate those processes, NASBA has launched three short, interactive videos on communicating with the IRS, SEC and DOL, respectively. The videos are 5-8 minutes long and can be viewed in the Enforcement Tools section of NASBA’s website, or by clicking the video graphic above.

Powered by the BrainShark platform, users can also easily navigate directly to the different topics within each video.
