In the spirit of promoting government accountability, AGA’s Cleveland chapter is pleased to announce that March has been declared Certified Government Financial Manager (CGFM) Month in Ohio. Governor Mike DeWine joins governors nationwide who have made March the month they promote this mark of excellence in the government financial management profession.

AGA’s CGFM certification recognizes the unique skills and special knowledge required of today’s government financial managers. It covers governmental accounting, auditing, financial reporting, internal controls and budgeting at the federal, state and local levels. It was specifically designed to meet the critical need for an increased emphasis on the professional qualifications and stature of government financial managers.
