Hi - I'm a new CPA in Ontario. Does anyone know of any free resources to get the required professional development hours? I noticed that a lot of places promote fairly expensive course options, and unfortunately, I have to pay for my PD myself (my employer isn't paying for this). Any advice would be super!

Hi Lizzy. The good news is that you don't have to pay for your PD credits.
Here's a link to CPA's online learning/PD resources:
https://www.cpacanada.ca/en/career-and-professional-development/webinars?page=0&num=2147483647&date=%7BA3D2E8AE-71BB-4C85-B85B-57743CFBE539%7D&type=%7B4F23AB3C-62BE-47E3-A253-1A2547A578EF%7D&topic=%7BA2FA1C0E-3C24-4426-9FA9-F1750FAD00B8%7D&sortBy=date&sort=desc
Many of the webinars are free and available to watch even after the webinar dates. You'll receive a certificate (which you can save as proof of attendance) after you finish watching the webinar and answer 3 quiz questions. Note that you'll have multiple attempts at each question.
