Welcome to the Accounts Payable Association

Transforming the AP Industry

The APA is the first (and only) UK professional body devoted to serving the Accounts Payable / Purchase Ledger professional community. Here at the APA we are committed to Accounts Payable being increasingly viewed as a separate and distinguishable profession and having a set of qualifications to recognise and support this.

Discover the APA qualifications and join thousands of likeminded AP professionals across the UK in becomming APA qualified Technicians and Managers.As an APA member you will also gain access to various tools, resources, surveys, events, jobs and careers advice. We estimate there are a minimum of a quarter of a million AP related workers in the UK who until now have lacked a member organisation to represent their interests. Join us on the journey, which promises to be exciting and rewarding for everyone.
