I'm not debating this fact but it doesn't really matter. Say you went to Harvard, worked you butt off and got a B Comm. I went to a no name community college, party 4 years and got the same B Comm. Are the two degrees the same just because they are all called B Comm? Obviously, no.

It's the same with the proposed CPA letters. The market will see through that you were the CA before CPA and someone else was the CMA before CPA. I know a lot of people taking these distant learning MBA courses. Sure, it's a MBA alright but it's not the same as a Stanford MBA.

There's a reason that the CAs were the one initiating the merger.
