International Accounts Payable Professionals and ‘AP Now & Tomorrow’ Create Strategic Partnership
Move aligns premiere AP professional association with leading AP publisher and training organization
Orlando (PRWEB) November 8, 2009 -- International Accounts Payable Professionals (IAPP) and Accounts Payable Now & Tomorrow, often referred to as AP Now, have announced a strategic partnership that will provide expanded benefits to IAPP members and to AP Now readers. This group includes practitioners in accounts payable and internal auditing, as well as the CFOs and controllers responsible for the payment function.
More than 5,000 members strong, the IAPP provides certification, events, training, and resources such as the bimonthly magazine AP Matters for accounts payable and other finance practitioners. Comparable benefits are now offered to accounts receivable professionals through a brand-new sister organization, International Accounts Receivable Professionals, and its publication AR Matters.
“AP Now’s publisher, Mary Schaeffer, has many years of AP experience, especially in the tax and regulatory realm, and brings a wealth of knowledge into this partnership,” says Thomas M. Bohn, IAPP/IARP CEO and executive director. “Our members will reap the benefits of that knowledge and the resulting expansion of resources available to them.”
Accounts Payable Now & Tomorrow is a monthly newsletter for professionals concerned about payment issues. It is widely read by practitioners, controllers, auditors and accounting professionals. The parent organization of AP Now, Crystallus Inc., also offers a free weekly ezine and a newly launched quarterly electronic publication, CFO & Controllers Accounts Payable Management Journal.
“We are thrilled to be working with an organization of the caliber of the IAPP,” says Schaeffer, a nationally recognized accounts payable expert. “This partnership will allow us to strategically add value to our core audience by providing them access to a fine professional association and certification program. We look forward to a long and mutually beneficial relationship.”
