When training budgets are under pressure, every euro needs to deliver value.

Act helps payroll teams focus their learning where it's needed most by identifying knowledge gaps and targeting development, rather than working through content they already know.

That means you can:
- Gain a clearer picture of your team's payroll knowledge.
- Focus learning where it will have the biggest impact.
- Make better use of your training budget.

All from less than the cost of a cup of coffee a day.*

Not every payroll team has the luxury of sharing the workload.

For many organisations, payroll is managed by one person who has to keep up with changing legislation, answer queries, meet deadlines and still find time for professional development.

That's why act has a single-user subscription offer designed to make learning more targeted. By identifying existing knowledge and highlighting areas for development, it helps make the most of the time available for learning.

Because when you're a team of one, every minute really does matter.

Payroll doesn't leave much room to stop and study.

Between deadlines, legislative changes and everything else that comes with the role, learning often gets pushed to the bottom of the list.

Act is designed to work differently. Instead of working through content you already know, it helps you identify the areas where you need to build confidence, so you can spend your time learning what matters.

Professional development shouldn't feel like another task on your to-do list. It should fit around the work you're already doing.

There's a gap between running payroll and leading a payroll function — and most professionals don't know how to close it.

You can be technically excellent and still get overlooked for management roles. Employers need to see that you can handle complexity beyond the day-to-day: international assignees, employment law, team leadership, compliance under pressure.

That's exactly what the IPASS Professional Payroll Manager (PPM) programme is built for.
Over one year — just 8 Saturdays online — you cover the three areas that define a strong payroll manager:

✅ Advanced income tax, global mobility and PRSI
✅ Employment law, redundancy, equality and WRC inspections
✅ Management skills: leadership, team building, performance and change

Graduates earn the MIPA designation and a formal IPASS qualification — recognised by Ireland's top employers across every sector.

One PPM graduate put it simply: "Since I passed my exam, I've been more recognised in my workplace — and given a pay rise."

Next intake starts 3rd October 2026.

Happy payroll teams have lower turnover. Lower turnover means reduced training costs, better continuity, and more reliable compliance. It's that simple.

Yet many payroll departments still treat retention as an afterthought - when it should be strategic.

That's where act comes in. By making payroll workflows simpler, faster, and less error-prone, we help your team focus on what they do best - and feel valued doing it.

A happy payroll team sticks around. And that's worth far more than a cup of coffee ☕

Ready to support your payroll team today? Let's talk about how act can help you retain your talent while cutting costs.

Not all AI assistants are created equal. ✅

When it comes to , the source matters.

If you've ever asked an AI assistant a payroll question and wondered whether to trust the answer — that instinct is right.

Generic AI tools like ChatGPT search the open internet — which means they can't access the IPASS Book, can't verify their answers against authoritative guidance, and may confidently tell you something that's simply wrong.

ASK IPASS is different. It's built specifically for Irish payroll professionals, trained on 25 years of expert IPASS guidance. Every answer is grounded in the same authoritative content your team relies on — like having a colleague with the Manual open in front of them.

For payroll professionals, accuracy isn't optional. The right tool makes all the difference.

📩 Want to bring ASK IPASS to your payroll team? Get in touch with us — we'd love to give you a free trial and let you experience the difference for yourself.

🎉 Welcome to all our new and returning CPT students joining us this week!

We’re really excited to have you with us as you take the next step in your CPT journey. Whether you’re just getting started with IPASS or picking up where you left off, we’re here to support you every step of the way.

We get asked this all the time by our students:
“𝐇𝐨𝐰 𝐝𝐨 𝐈 𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐦𝐲 𝐟𝐢𝐫𝐬𝐭 𝐩𝐚𝐲𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐥 𝐣𝐨𝐛 𝐰𝐡𝐞𝐧 𝐞𝐯𝐞𝐫𝐲 𝐫𝐨𝐥𝐞 𝐚𝐬𝐤𝐬 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐞𝐱𝐩𝐞𝐫𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞?”

Every payroll professional had a first day.
Nobody walked in with years behind them.

Employers aren't just hiring a CV. They're hiring someone who can think through a payroll problem and get the numbers right. If you can demonstrate that — even in a simple worked example — you're already ahead of most candidates.

Pick one topic from a job spec. Build something around it. A PAYE calculation, a payroll summary, a compliance note. Talk through your thinking. That's your proof.

IPASS qualifications are grounded in real Irish payroll practice — so what you study, you can immediately apply.

You don't need a full CV. You just need to start.
