The Association of Chartered Accountants in the United States (ACAUS) is a nonprofit professional and educational organization representing interests of over 6,500 U.S. based chartered accountants from the home institutes of Chartered Accountants across the globe (please see the map below). These include Australia, Canada, England & Wales, Ireland, New Zealand, Scotland and South Africa.

ACAUS members have international experience in public accounting and in the financial and general management of large and small corporations in many different countries and cultures.

Our mission is to facilitate the professional success of our members and, in so doing, promote the business community’s recognition of, and respect for the qualifications of the "Chartered Accountant" ("CA") designation. Since our founding in 1980, we have worked to achieve this by focusing on the following goals:

• Disseminating information on opportunities for career advancement
  
• Enhancing public understanding and perception of the CA designation 
  in the U.S.
  
• Encouraging education and research devoted to international
  accountancy issues.
  
• Advocating for mutual recognition of CA and CPA qualifications.
  
• Facilitating business networking.
  
• Providing opportunities for social interaction among members.

To achieve these goals, ACAUS is dedicated to:

• Educating business leaders about the unique skill set of CAs.
  
• Promoting CAs as candidates for executive positions.
• Supporting the study of international accounting through our annual scholarships and award.
• Publicizing ACAUS and chartered accountants.
• Promoting mutual recognition with accounting organizations and
  trade negotiators.
