Being an Accounts Payable Professional is a state of mind. It is a desire to be the best at what you do and the realization that your job is more than just paying bills. An Accounts Payable Professional wants to raise the standards and learn what the best practices are (and implement best practices in their office).
So here are the steps:
Step 1: Get paid for working on an Accounts Payable related job.
Step 2: Join the Accounts Payable Professionals group and interact with your peers, read discussion posts, and sign up for webinars (many are free).
Step 3: Get your company to pay for your AP Certification.
Step 4: Attend AP Conferences and keep up-to-date on current AP issues and technology.
