The best undergraduate accounting/financial management/business students in the
country are invited to compete in the third annual Government Finance Case Challenge, sponsored
by the Association of Government Accountants (AGA).
Student teams
will collaboratively analyze and offer a written response to a case centered
on how a U.S. city government implements a performance management system. The registration
deadline is Friday, Oct. 2, 2009. All members of the two highest-scoring
teams will receive a scholarship to attend AGA's National Leadership
Conference, set for February of 2010 in Washington, D.C.
Teams will
present their finalized solutions before a panel of federal/state/local
government leaders, corporate partners and CFOs. The winning teams will be announced at the awards luncheon
on the final day of the conference.
Cash prizes
will be awarded to the winning team. Each student participant will receive
a free one-year membership to AGA.
Students will
compete with teams from various colleges around the country. The experience
promises to challenge students' moral reasoning, raise their awareness
of the importance of government accountability and open doors to a future
career in government.
