About the IAP

The Institution is Britain’s leading professional organisation for people who work in the development, installation and testing of business systems and computer software. People join us principally for the prestige and privilege of associating with some of the leading professionals in this sector of the industry. They also appreciate the many practical benefits that IAP membership can provide.

Membership of the Institution is an endorsement of your professional competence by your peers in the industry. It can advance your career and boost your business. It gives employers and clients the confidence that they are dealing with an accredited professional.

Members can use the IAP coat of arms on letter headings and business documents, and add IAP membership to their qualifications. They can call on the support of other members with a wide range of skills. The Institution itself provides a range of practical services to assist members in finding work, overcoming problems and developing their careers.
