Durham Home Base to Major National Associations City of Durham NC Flag

Durham is home base to several major national associations.  Thus, not only do the world’s associations and societies come to meet in Durham, some of these well known organizations call the Bull City their home.

The American Institute of CPAs is the world’s largest member association
representing the accounting profession, with more than 412,000 members
in 144 countries, and a history of serving the public interest since
1887. AICPA members represent many areas of practice, including business
and industry, public practice, government, education and consulting.

The AICPA sets ethical standards for the profession and U.S. auditing
standards for private companies, nonprofit organizations, federal, state
and local governments. It develops and grades the Uniform CPA
Examination, and offers specialty credentials for CPAs who concentrate
on personal financial planning; forensic accounting; business valuation;
and information management and technology assurance.

scientific, international, non-governmental and objective body, IUPAC
can address many global issues involving the chemical sciences.

of a basic science and a mission-oriented Union. The Union is in a
unique position to contribute to the central interdisciplinary chemical
sciences. Strengthening international chemistry, striving towards

Their members consist of criminal justice professionals such as those in law
enforcement, institutional and community corrections, courts, social
services, academia, religious and other community-based interests as
well as criminal justice students and community leaders. This multi-ethnic, non-profit, nonpartisan organization is dedicated to improving the justice system.

National Press Photographers Association

The NPPA Code of Ethics stands for the highest integrity in visual storytelling. Their advocacy efforts put NPPA in the center of today’s thorniest issues of
journalists’ rights to do their work — and to earn a living from their
craft. Their ongoing education initiatives seek to equip our members and prepare the emerging generation of visual journalists in the face of an ever-changing media
landscape.
