About the AAP Preparatory Training

The Accredited Automated clearing house Professional (AAP) is awarded by NACHA, or the National Automated Clearinghouse Association, to recognize electronic banking payments professionals who have satisfied a comprehensive exam in October.

The AAP designation is recognized nationwide as an indicator of a person who has satisfied the industry requirements in payments compliance, regulatory standards, and industry case studies.

While not affiliated with NACHA or its Regional Payments Associations (RPA), this BankersHub training will provide any professional seeking to take the annual AAP a complete review and foundational training into the many complex areas covered by the AAP exam. Students also have the opportunity to retake any sections they feel the need to review again and there is no deadline or arbitrary date by which registrants must complete the course…it’s set up to be a true self-study.

Students taking the BankersHub AAP Preparatory Training program still must register for the exam with NACHA. Open registration for the October 2022 exam starts Monday, December 20, 2021 and continues until October 1, 2022.

Now is the time to sign up for the BankersHub AAP Preparatory Training program and begin your path to getting your highly coveted AAP designation!
