I've heard there's a WBS code for staying for the CPA exams. Is that true?

Yeah, it's "available"

No. There is a code that you can use for 2 days: 1 the day before the exam, and 1 the day of the actual CPA exam. Email your HR contact if you can't easily find them. Other times when you are in the office studying for the CPA you are "available"

@PwC4 maybe they changed the policy now; back in the day we got 2 8-HR days for that code.

It might be the self-study one which is the same one they use for the online trainings.

What's this about day before test? When I was working on the exam (not that long ago), the firm's policy was you could hit that code for no more than 4 hours on the day of each exam. Otherwise study time in the office was "available" and time off (including rest of day when you sit, if applicable) was to hit vacation.

Self study
