Applicants must provide a narrative (less than 150 words) about why they are pursuing the CPA credential. Applicants are to apply online, and must have completed Intermediate Accounting by the time of application.

In the past, the award has been presented under the name of Roy Janz, one of North Dakota’s first CPAs. His certificate number was number 18, granted in 1925. Mr. Janz served as President of the North Dakota CPA Society from 1948 to 1949.

The CPA Society is an association of about 1500 CPAs that provides various services to the CPA profession, including education, information and legislative support.
