ABOUT THE THIRD
AGE NETWORK
STAY
CONNECTED
THE THIRD AGE NETWORK WAS
ESTABLISHED IN 2004 BY A GROUP
OF RETIRED AND SEMI-RETIRED
MEMBERS WHO WANTED TO
CONTINUE THEIR SOCIAL AND
PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT
WITH CPA AUSTRALIA.
THIRD AGE NETWORK MEMBERS
PARTICIPATE REGULARLY IN
DISCUSSION GROUPS, FORUMS
AND WORKSHOPS COVERING
ISSUES AND TOPICS THAT MATTER
TO THEM.
Recently, members have initiated a program to
help tackle elder financial abuse, been involved
in a project matching CPAs with not-for-profits,
and contributed to CPA Australia’s award
winning business magazine INTHEBLACK.

CPA Australia maintains a retired list of members
who are working less than 15 hours or two days
per week. To be eligible a member must:
YOU’VE SPENT A LIFETIME
BUILDING YOUR CAREER
AND HAVE A REPUTATION
THAT STANDS FOR YOUR
ACHIEVEMENTS.
The CPA designation has been a constant
symbol of your professional expertise and,
while you’re now working less, you’ve never
known more.
CPA Australia’s Third Age Network provides
members with ongoing learning, networking
and professional development opportunities
and supports the transition to working less.
• no longer hold a specialist certificate.
If you are on the retired list you can maintain
all the benefits of membership at a considerably
reduced fee.
