Becker Professional Education

Becker Professional Education is a global provider of accounting exam review courses and continuing professional education in accounting and finance. It is best known for its CPA Exam prep courses, which have helped nearly two million candidates pass the Uniform CPA Exam and become Certified Public Accountants. However, they have expanded to offer more credentialing exam review courses as well as continuing professional education (CPE).

Becker was founded in 1957 by Newton D. Becker, a CPA and educator who initially developed the course to train colleagues at Price Waterhouse. Their CPA Exam Review was the first of its kind available to a broad audience.

The company became independent in 1960 and rapidly expanded, offering in-person classes in over 90 cities by the 1980s. In 1996, Becker was acquired by DeVry Inc. (later Adtalem Global Education), and in 2022, it was acquired by Colibri Group, a professional education company that also serves real estate, healthcare, teaching, valuation & property services, and financial services.

Becker’s self-study exam review packages include digital and physical textbooks, lecture videos, adaptive learning technology, practice tests, simulated exams, and Newt, an AI study tool.[citation needed]

Becker also offers Continuing Professional Education (CPE) courses to support CPAs, CMAs, and other credentialed accounting and finance professionals, as well as IRS-approved Enrolled Agent continuing education.

In 2024, Becker partnered with the Robert J. Trulaske, Sr. College of Business at the University of Missouri to offer Becker Academy, which are courses designed to fill in knowledge gaps and build foundational information needed to study for the CPA Exam.

Becker provides their exam reviews to a global audience through a network of international partners and institutions. These include Morgan International, Bikai Corporate Management Consulting, Global International Management, LLC, Nova Global Education Co., Ltd., and TAC Co. Ltd., as well as global chapters from The Institute of Internal Auditors, and others.[citation needed]

In 2025, Becker entered a partnership with Simandhar Education, providing Simandhar with exclusive distribution rights in India of Becker’s CPA and CMA Exam Review courses.
