It is not intended to be a substitute for the 7 hour National USPAP update course. Summary of changes adopted includes:
- Revisions to the definitions of “Client”, “Extraordinary Assumptions”, Hypothetical Condition” and a new definition of “Exposure Time”
- Revisions relating to Development & Disclosure of Exposure Time Opinion
- Revisions to Standards Rules 2-3, 3-6, 5-3, 6-9, 8-3 & 10-3 (Certification Statement on Prior Services)
- Creation of new RECORD KEEPING RULE and related edits to the Conduct Section of the ETHICS RULE
- Revisions to Advisory Opinion 21, USPAP Compliance; and
