ICPA Essentials Membership

We know the challenges of running an accountancy or bookkeeping start-up. In addition to your day-to-day client work, how do you ensure that you remain compliant, have access to the resources and support you need, are adequately insured and are training your team?

In the past, external support with these things would require you to use a number of different suppliers. That’s why we created our ICPA Essentials membership, which provides you with all of the above – and more – for a single, discounted monthly fee. This package is crafted for members with less than 2 years experience.

What is ICPA Essentials?

ICPA Essentials membership is our package designed specifically for start-up accountancy and bookkeeping businesses. It includes all of the essential products a new business needs to remain compliant, up-to-date and supported, from technical advice and resources to insurance cover and more.

Why Join Us?

There’s plenty to juggle when starting a new accountancy or bookkeeping practice. We’re here to reduce that juggling – and to help your practice to grow.

With ICPA Essentials membership you’ll enjoy all the benefits mentioned above from a single supplier, with a single monthly fee. Choosing ICPA for your PI cover, advice lines, Tolley Library access and more saves you a significant amount of money on the tools you need to get ahead – and to remain compliant.
