Why Partner with SCACPA?

SCACPA serves to protect and promote the CPA profession in South Carolina. Every program, product, service, and benefit exists to support that mission and enhance the value and expertise of SC CPAs. SC CPAs rely on SCACPA as their go-to source for continuous professional growth and enhancement.

With SCACPA on your team, you gain a contingent of advocacy professionals, a marketing engine, recruitment specialists, unlimited access to education, and more.

All told, SCACPA’s savings come out to thousands more than what you would spend on each of these line items individually. A dedicated lobbyist alone would cost a firm $75,000, which doesn’t even account for the strength of the 4,000 voices behind it!

Advocacy-Protecting the Profession

SCACPA is the only organization looking out for the CPA profession in South Carolina. Who better than your association to protect and promote the CPA Profession?

SCACPA develops and maintains relationships with state and federal legislators so they understand how bills will impact the CPA profession and the business community. We are an ever-present voice at the State House during the legislative session, and members of our Legislator Connections Community communicate with representatives throughout the year.

Thanks to the tireless work of our volunteers, SCACPA is well known at the State House and among regulatory bodies like the SC Department of Revenue and the State Board of Accountancy. This enables SCACPA to have a real impact on bills and regulations that could be hurtful or helpful to the profession.

When hot button issues arise, or you need information quickly, you can be assured that SCACPA has you covered.

Advocacy extends beyond congressional chambers. We realize the importance of advocating value to member clients and the business community. That’s why SCACPA started the #WhyCPA campaign – to promote the value of CPAs to local business owners and individuals.
