For Nebraska public accounting firms, this collaboration with Miles Education unlocks access to a pool of experienced international CPA candidates eager to bring their talents to the United States, without outsourcing or offshoring. To accomplish this, Miles collaborates with leading universities to convert their accounting programs to STEM; this process is already underway at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. This facilitates Indian accountants’ eligibility to work in the U.S. for three years under student F1 visas, followed by the possibility of an additional six years with an H1B visa. With an average of 4.3 years of experience in accounting, audit, and tax, more than 100 STEM CPA candidates are waiting to be interviewed for positions in the United States. These CPA candidates from India have been placed with large, medium, and small firms nationwide, including in Nebraska.
