APAQ Programme

This programme has been designed to provide the successful applicant organisation with recognition for Best Practice leading to the APAQ quality accreditation.

 

Relevant to international organisations, SSCs, SMEs and even stand-alone AP Professionals, this quality accreditation process will provide you the opportunity to review the accounts payable function within your organisation.   It is designed to enable you to demonstrate the immense value-add your role contributes to the organisation as a whole. It may even change or improve the perception of your Accounts Payable (AP) department by eliminating mis-conceptions with the full definition of your function.

 

Based on an ethos of continuous improvement, the successful applicants may go on to achieve the

APA ’s global recognition of best practice methods and procedures and become part of the Best Practice Network sharing tips, knowledge and showcasing best practice examples with other accredited organisations.
