PRESS RELEASE:  Susan Bradley earns CITP Designation (October 31, 2000)

Susan E. Bradley, CPA has been awarded the Certified Information Technology Professional (CITP) designation by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants.

The CITP designation, established this year by the AICPA is awarded to CPAs with significant experience in information technology strategic planning, implementation, management, and business strategies for information systems. The CPA/CITP serves as the bridge between
management and the technology department, leveraging the CPA's strategic and business skills.

Susan met the requirements to earn the designation, including a CPA certificate, evidence of her technology business experience and life-long learning activities. Experience and learning include the areas of:

• Information Technology Strategic Planning

• Information Systems Management

• Systems Architecture

• Business Applications and e-Business

• Security, Privacy and Contingency Planning

• System Development, Acquisition, and Project Management

• Systems Auditing and Internal Control

• Databases and Database Management

CPAs who have earned the CITP designation must recertify their accreditation every three years. To do so, they must document their involvement in technology services and complete a prescribed amount of related life long learning activities during this three-year period.

The AICPA's CITP program has four objectives: 

• To achieve public recognition of the CPA as the preferred IT professional in the business community; 

• To promote members’ services through compilation of the CITP Expertise Database and the development of appropriate marketing materials; 

• To enhance the quality of IT services that members provide; and 

• To increase practice development opportunities and advance the careers of CPAs employed in business and industry, education, government and other areas.
