Fáilte go CIPFA (Welcome to CIPFA)

CIPFA is the professional body for people in public service finance and the only accountancy body in the world exclusively dedicated to the sector.

Formed in the 1990s, CIPFA Republic of Ireland promotes excellence in the public finance function including governance, reporting and performance in central government, heath sector, education, local government and state bodies.

We are here to help whether you want to become a qualified accountant, need help with governance issues, or wish to enhance your skills in government and finance. We achieve this by championing the CIPFA range of professional qualifications and supporting public sector finance professionals through a comprehensive range of CPD events as part of a much wider public policy advocacy role.
