CIPFA students who have successfully completed the CIPFA Professional Accountancy Qualification and Initial Professional Development Scheme (IPDS) are invited to apply for CIPFA Membership. Once membership is approved members can use the designatory letters ‘CPFA’ (Chartered Public Finance Accountant) for as long as they continue membership.
