CGFM Examinations Update
In 2007 AGA undertook a psychometric review and update of the
three CGFM Examinations. To ensure that the examinations content
reflects the current industry practices, AGA conducted a
full-scale Job Analysis Study of the role of the Certified
Government Financial Manager. While the core of the examination
content remained the same, the three examination content
outlines were updated, refreshed and streamlined. The weighting
among the sub-content areas within each examination was
adjusted, and the language of the content outlines was revised
to provide additional depth and detail to support candidates
preparing for the examinations.

The updated CGFM Examinations will be offered for the first
time at the Intensive Review Course/CGFM Examinations event to
take place before the Professional Development Conference in
Atlanta on July 24-27, 2008. The updated examinations will be
available in Prometric testing centers starting on August 15,
2008. CGFM Examinations taken prior to that date will follow the
existing
examinations content outline.
The updated study guides can be ordered on the
study guide
