A PayrollOrg certification is a valuable, objective credential that verifies a specified level of knowledge, skills, and abilities in the payroll profession. A certification helps individuals demonstrate their payroll expertise, secure promotions, advance their careers, and enhance their standing within the payroll profession.

*Registration is now open. Each class will be led by a current CPP who is comfortable with the subject matter and will be supported with summarized materials to aid in your review of the text.

Testimonial from Jean:

"I had been working in payrolls for a few years before I heard about the APA and this course. I signed up for the program, studied hard and attended some of the weekend classes. I lived 2 ½ hours away from the closest course, so this was a major time commitment. It would have been a lot easier if the classes had been offered virtually. I took the CPP exam and passed with a high score. The Payroll Source was extremely valuable to my success. The opportunity to work with those who had already passed either the FPC or the CPP also provided me with insights that I would not have been able to get just by studying on my own."
