CPA required or not for express entry?

[Vivien33]

I have been working as an Auditor/Accountant in the US for past 2 years but have not passed the CPA exam. I am applying for express entry under NOC Code 1111 - Financial Auditor and Accountants - Is it CIC requirement to have CPA certification to get the PR or not?
