CERTIFIED GOVERNMENT FINANCIAL MANAGER (CGFM) MONTH
To recognize the CGFM Program and its accomplishments, AGA has declared March of each year going forward as "CGFM Month."
Proclaiming March 2008 as CGFM Month does not only recognize the over 14,000 Certified Government Financial Managers and AGA members nationwide but inspire them to continue to demonstrate professionalism and competency to promote government accountability. California has around 1,200 AGA members, with around 50 coming from the AGA Silicon Valley Chapter. AGA has long been advocate in promoting government accountability and AGA's CGFM Certification serves that purpose.
In March 2008, California Governor Arnold Schwarzenegger issued a CGFM recognition and congratulatory letter.
