Bring the learning into your organization
Your priorities. A team learning together.
Use the in-house training days in your membership to focus colleagues on an agreed topic within FCPAS expertise. Build the session around your organization’s learning priorities and the roles of the people attending.
Virtual
Bring colleagues together online, including employees working across different locations.
In person
Arrange an agreed session for your team, with the organization funding all facilitator expenses and required local facilities.
A combination of both
Agree a mix of virtual and in-person delivery within your included training-day allocation.
Plan the delivery costs clearly.
For in-person delivery, the corporate member pays all facilitator expenses separately from the annual membership fee. These include travel, airfares, accommodation, meals and subsistence, visas, insurance, transfers, local transport and other necessary delivery expenses.
Agree the topic, date, duration, format, facilitator arrangements, expense budget and payment arrangements in writing before bookings. The corporate member also provides any required venue, equipment and local facilities.
Training is included without an assigned monetary value on this page. CPD credit for a session depends on separately approved learning outcomes, assessment and attendance controls. Services outside the included scope require a separate proposal.

Annual fee: US$7,500

Reference rates: Associate Membership US$125; FCPA US$3,000 or FCA US$2,500; certificates US$500; CPD US$75. These are the rates used in the supplied membership plan. Course allocations are shared company pools, and selected participants must meet the relevant admission requirements. Training, account support, facilitator expenses, additional purchases and any founding-member bonus are excluded from the monetary illustration. Reference values help you compare the package. They are not a forecast of cash savings or a financial return.
Questions from company decision-makers
Make a confident membership decision.
Understand how the package fits your existing development plans, which employees can benefit and what to budget for.
We already fund professional development. What does this add?
It adds a focused forensic accounting component to your development plan. One annual package combines personal Associate Membership, a shared pool of program, certificate and CPD enrollments, and in-house training. You can direct specialist places to key employees while giving the wider named team access to membership benefits.
Does everyone need to become a forensic accountant?
No. Every active named employee receives Associate Membership. You decide how to allocate the company’s program, certificate and CPD places according to each person’s role and development priorities. Program admission requirements still apply; Associate Membership itself has no professional qualification prerequisites.
Does every employee receive all the course allocations?
The education places are shared annual company pools. For example, Enterprise includes 3 program enrollments, 60 certificate enrollments and 60 CPD enrollments for the organization as a whole. Each course enrollment covers one named employee in one standard course. Complimentary member workshops and webinars do not consume those pools.
How do we turn the benefits into a useful annual plan?
Appoint a corporate contact, nominate the employees, identify your learning priorities and allocate places to the people who need them. Agree the topic and format of your in-house training with FCPAS. A named account manager supports onboarding and benefit orientation; the membership schedule includes an annual utilization report.
What costs should we budget for separately?
For in-person training, your organization pays all facilitator expenses, including travel, accommodation, subsistence, visas, insurance and local transport, as well as required local facilities. Education beyond your included allocations and any applicable partner charges are additional. Training scope, expenses and payment arrangements are agreed before bookings.
Does membership award the FCPA or FCA designation?
Corporate membership provides Associate Membership and tuition for the program places included in your package. Earning a professional designation requires the participant to meet the relevant admission, assessment, experience and certification requirements. Corporate membership does not itself confer accreditation, professional licensing or a designation.
Can we add employees or move to a larger tier?
Additional named employee seats are proposed at US$125 per membership year. An organization may upgrade by paying the difference between its current tier and the higher tier, with the renewal date unchanged. Proration and seat-change rules are governed by the final membership agreement. Memberships are for named employees rather than floating logins.
Do unused learning allocations roll over?
Included enrollments must be used during the active membership year. Unused allocations expire without rollover, refund, cash or credit value. Choose the package you can put to work and plan usage with your corporate contact and account manager.
How do we begin?
Choose a preferred tier and prepare your corporate membership inquiry below. The FCPAS team can discuss your employees, allocations, training format and activation requirements. Membership activation follows application approval and payment, unless a written effective date is agreed. The final membership agreement governs the offer.
