Join SCACPA – South Carolina Association of CPAs

SCACPA members are passionate about the CPA profession and building a strong community in South Carolina. CPAs all around the state partner with SCACPA to protect and promote the profession at all levels.

Every SCACPA program and service is firmly rooted in the core values:

SCACPA is the only organization dedicated to protecting and promoting the CPA profession in South Carolina. We build strong relationships with state and federal legislators to influence bills impacting CPAs and the business community. Through efforts like the #WhyCPA campaign, we advocate for the value of CPAs to clients and local businesses.

SCACPA supports students on their journey to becoming CPAs by providing scholarships, discounts on exam reviews, and promoting career opportunities. By engaging with students and educators, SCACPA helps ensure a strong talent pipeline for the CPA profession.

Connect with peers through local events, which include networking, student, and legislative activities. SCACPA’s Spring Splash and Fall Fest conferences offer top-notch education and networking opportunities with peers and partners to help grow your business.

Get answers and build connections through SCACPA Connect, your private online community. Stay informed with relevant content via our e-newsletter, social media channels, podcasts, and the South Carolina CPA Report magazine, all tailored for South Carolina CPAs.

SCACPA offers customized, state-specific education and unlimited access to top CPE courses. Our Education Committee designs offerings to meet your professional needs, ensuring you have the tools to navigate changes for your business and clients without extra cost.

At the center of SCACPA membership is a steadfast community. Through that community, you’ll build relationships, discover ways to give back to your profession, elevate your professional profile and, of course, participate in inventive and interactive continuing education.

Simply said, CPAs look to SCACPA as their partner in success. Regardless of how much professional experience you have or whether you work for a public accounting firm or industry organization, SCACPA produces programs and services designed to meet your needs and elevate you.

The best part? SCACPA promotes an all-inclusive membership model — pay one fee and gain access to everything.

Gain membership in a local chapter, access to SCACPA Connect, the exclusive, members-only online community, and unlimited CPE (in-person, livestreamed, and conferences) Many associations require dues plus registration fees, chapter membership, and subscriptions–not SCACPA!

To join SCACPA, just complete the application on this page. Once received, our team will review and contact you with any questions and for your first dues payment.

We look forward to working with you and building a stronger association!
