Organizational Affiliate

What is it?

Organizational Affiliates have no voting privileges at the annual general meeting, or ability to shape the CPA’s decision-making process/governance structure. Their affiliation with the CPA in no way implies the CPA’s endorsement or support of the organizational affiliates position and/or policies.
