The governing body of the Institute is the Council which comprises eleven (11) members: seven (7) members elected by full members of ICPAU; one (1) member appointed by the Minister for Finance from a recognised profession or regulatory body established by an Act of Parliament; and three (3) ex-officio members, the Accountant General, the Auditor General and the Officer responsible for higher education in the Ministry of Education.
Five of the seven elected members must be in public practice and at least three (3) of the elected members must be women.

The Council in turn elects a President and Vice President from among the elected members at its first meeting.
The Secretary of the Institute is the Secretary of Council and the Chief Executive Officer.
