The Institute of Public Accountants (IPA) is one of the three legally recognised professional bodies for accountants in Australia.[1] The IPA represents more than 25,000 voting members working in industry, commerce, government, academia and professional practice.[2]

The organisation rebranded from its previous title, the National Institute of Accountants (NIA), on 2 May 2011.[3]

In 2012, the IPA was ranked 19th in the BRW Most Innovative Companies list.[4]

The IPA launched a digital hub in early 2013.[5]
