Why Is Accounts Payable Certification Necessary?
Much of what is done in accounts payable today has been developed in the past five years – some of it in the last two years. Today’s AP professionals must use the latest electronic processing technologies to drastically reduce the cost of their operations, must work intuitively with every system and department within the organization, and must now completely change a number of procedures while creating new ones. This program helps AP professionals meet these challenges and demonstrate their expertise within their organization and to outside agencies.
Who Should Attend
The program is designed for experienced AP managers, their staff, or the AP department as a whole, as well as those overseeing the AP function including accounting department managers, controllers and shared services managers, and payroll managers in public, private, governmental and non-profit organizations.
