Thousands of our member firms reap the benefits of membership every day. PCPS works tirelessly on your behalf and wants to be sure you take advantage of all that membership has to offer. Benefits of membership include:
Web Forums, Communications, & Networking Groups
Some of our major membership benefits include Web Forums featuring the profession’s top speakers who present on the most pressing issues that CPA firms face today. Also, PCPS firms enjoy member-exclusive communications such as monthly e-newsletters, quarterly seasonality/workload compression newsletters, and subscriptions to the CPA Technology Advisor magazine and The Practicing CPA newsletter. Networking groups, segmented by firm size, are another popular member benefit.
Practice Management Resources
We offer Firm Practice Management support in the form of Web site resources, or “resource centers”, such as our Staffing resource matrix – the Human Capital Center, the Succession Planning Resource Center, and the Client Service Resource Center. In addition, PCPS publishes on its Web site information and key findings from its bi-annual surveys, the PCPS/TSCPA National MAP Survey and the PCPS CPA Firm Top Issues Survey.

Firm Advocacy & Updates on Standards
In our advocacy role, PCPS keeps practitioners in the loop regarding technical issues that affect the profession, especially the small to medium-sized firms. We also provide our members with tools to deal with new standards (e.g. SAS No. 115 information) in the Keeping Up With Standards section of our Web site. PCPS acts as the voice of the local and regional firm by representing small firm interests with groups such as Technical Issues Committee (TIC), who meets with the FASB and GASB annually.
In addition to all of the services we offer, we provide PCPS firms discounts up to 20% off selected MAP products and conferences. (See the Member Discounts page.)
