History

 

History of the Certified Payroll Professional Certification

The American Payroll Association developed and administers the Certified Payroll Professional (CPP) certification program. With well over 7,400 Certified Payroll Professionals nationwide, payroll is finally recognized as a measurable professional discipline. The CPP designation is an indication that an individual has achieved a high level of expertise and is qualified to meet the broad range of complex issues faced by Payroll Professionals daily. 

To better serve all levels of the payroll community, the American Payroll Association developed a second certification, the FPC.  This certification was first administered in September 2000.  The FPC designation is awarded to individuals based on payroll knowledge, not expertise; thus, there are no eligibility requirements for the FPC examination. 

The CPP and FPC exams are administered in various locations across the United States.  To learn more about the Certified Payroll Professional Exam download the booklet by clicking on the book below.
