* This one-time promotion is designed to assist PEOs in becoming accredited sooner and be able to benefit from the additional profitable growth resulting from accreditation, which has been consistently demonstrated by accredited PEOs over the past 15 years. In addition to the more time and cost efficient registration and licensing in an increasing number of states that all accredited PEOs enjoy, ESAC’s accreditation and financial assurance provide a valuable sales & marketing advantage that will help you close and retain profitable new clients. Because of the importance of accreditation and financial assurance to the entire PEO Industry, ESAC has reduced the standard accreditation fee for all PEO applicants regardless of size for the 3-year promotion period (2009-2011) as follows:

  • PEOs first accredited in 2009 are eligible for discounted rates for 3 years.

  • PEOs first accredited in 2010 are eligible for discounted rates for 2 years.

  • PEOs first accredited in 2011 are eligible for discounted rates for 1 year.

This means the sooner an eligible PEO becomes accredited, the more they save and the sooner they begin benefiting from the enhanced market credibility and state regulatory compliance advantages!
