Our Payroll Team is Industry Certified and Ready to Serve



It is very important to us at Alliance Benefit Group North Central States, Inc. (ABGNCS) to stand by our core focus, “We take the worry away.”  For our employees to deliver on this promise, we believe it’s important to be knowledge leaders within the industries we serve. A key contribution to our knowledge base is our commitment to having our employees become certified within those industries.  



For our Payroll Department an important designation is the Fundamental Payroll Certification (FPC). Our Payroll Account Managers are proud to have these three characters displayed behind their names. As a payroll provider, this training helps us be prepared to fully support the payroll process from start to finish. 



What does FPC stand for?

FPC stands for Fundamental Payroll Certification, a professional certification administered through the American Payroll Association (APA).



What is the purpose of the FPC designation?

The FPC is a way for payroll professionals, consultants, analysts and sales representatives to demonstrate their knowledge of basic payroll concepts and systems to establish credibility.

We currently have three employees with the FPC. ABGNCS is proud to have this designation as part of our organization and supports that the rest of our Payroll Team working towards this certification.



These efforts help us keep up with the ever-changing payroll rules and regulations. We’re ready to help answer any questions you may have about your payroll systems.
