A voice for members
Membership tenure is for two years, after which a member can renominate. Appointments to a Centre of Excellence are made by the CPA Australia Chief Executive Officer or their delegate. We seek applications each year to join the CoEs. Applications for members commencing 2022 are now closed.
Centres of Excellence include CPA Australia members and non-CPA Australia members. Non-CPA Australia members may not comprise more than half of the members of each Centre of Excellence.
