Moderated forums

There are two types of forums: moderated and unmoderated. Unmoderated forums allow member-to-members communication, while moderated forums are also overseen and contributed to by a subject expert. Expert responses are coloured orange to allow you to distinguish them from other comments.

The Recruitment forum is moderated by Hays Accountancy and Finance. All CPA Program forums are moderated by subject experts from CPA Australia.
