Backed by Influential State Societies

The Voice of the Profession is Embedded in our Long-term Strategy and Oversight

CPA QualityPro is proud to partner with leading state societies to modernize firm registration and mobility compliance.

President & CEO, Washington Society of CPAs
"We saw a critical gap in the market. No tool was being developed fast enough to help our members prepare for the coming regulatory shifts. We chose to invest in CPA QualityPro because we believe this solution is what firms need now, and we invite other state societies to join us in supporting it."
Kimberly Scott
President & CEO, Washington Society of CPAs
President & CEO, Florida Institute of CPAs
"The CPA profession is facing a wave of regulatory complexity, and we need solutions that are both practical and forward-looking. That’s why we backed CPA QualityPro early. It’s built by people who understand the challenges firms face, and it has the potential to fundamentally improve how firms manage compliance in a multi-state environment."
Shelly Weir
President & CEO, Florida Institute of CPAs
President & CEO, The Georgia Society of CPAs
"Our members need clarity, speed, and confidence as licensure and mobility rules shift. We’re supporting CPA QualityPro because nothing else in the market manages the day-to-day work of licensure compliance. Together, we are building a tool that does more than just provide information; it operationalizes it by centralizing firm registration, mapping firm and individual practice privileges, and driving compliance through alerts, documentation, and tracking."
Boyd Search
President & CEO, The Georgia Society of CPAs
President & CEO, Illinois CPA Society
"Illinois CPA firms of all sizes are asking for scalable, practical compliance tools. CPA QualityPro’s roadmap includes features that will help firms stay current and compliant without juggling spreadsheets and inbox reminders. We’re excited to join Florida, Washington, and Georgia in advancing a profession-first solution."
Geoffrey Brown
President & CEO, Illinois CPA Society
