20 Semester Units – Accounting Study (CA Requirement)

I believe it does meet the requirement. The staff at the CBA are trained to look for accredited schools and the right words in the course title. They don't dig into course content unless you want to appeal. I actually got back the transcripts that I sent with their unit counts when I first applied for the exam, and they counted all kinds of stuff I would have expected to be borderline if I didn't know their requirements well. If the school is real and it's got accounting in the title (even better if its in an accounting department), it's almost certainly good.

The CBA's own licensing handbook (https://www.dca.ca.gov/cba/publications/applbook.pdf) states that courses in bookkeeping, Peachtree/Quickbooks, and even CPA review courses count if you take them at an accredited institution. I'm sure most people here would agree that these are more practical than theoretical.
