The CGFM is the first certification broad enough to cover the whole field of government financial management-federal, state and local. It measures a wide range of knowledge and skills that a professional needs to succeed in the federal government financial environment, or to meet the unique challenges faced by state and local government financial managers.

Don't Forget to Renew Your Membership!

It's membership renewal time!! Thank you so much for being a member of our chapter.

As we approach the 2011-2012 AGA membership year, the Association asks you to take part in our effort to go "green" by renewing your membership online. If you haven't already done so, why not renew now? Your membership dues were due March 31, 2011. Paying now eliminates the need for us to send you reminder notices--saving paper and trees. Renewing online is as easy as logging on to the Members Only section of the website at www.agacgfm.org. Your AGA ID number is the same as your membership ID and your password is your first initial immediately followed by your last name (no spaces), unless you have changed it.

We look forward to you renewing your membership and participating in some of our events during the year. Your membership helps keep us strong and is the backbone of this excellent association. Thank you.

Chapter Membership Campaign

You know how valuable your AGA membership is, now it's time for you to share your knowledge with others. The New York Capital Chapter is pleased to announce the 2010-2011 Membership Campaign.

How it works:

The campaign is simple, for each new member you sponsor your name is entered into a drawing for a $100 Visa Gift card. The more new members you sponsor, the more chances you have to win!

Tell your friends and co-workers about the AGA! Encourage them to fill out AGA's membership application or complete the application online. Make sure they include your name in the sponsor's name category on the application.

The membership campaign is retroactive from June 1st 2010 and runs through May 30th 2011. The winner will be selected at the annual Chapter Awards Luncheon on June 14th at Wolfert's Roost.

Don't Forget AGA National's Get-A-Member Campaign!

The New York Capital Chapter Membership Campaign runs simultaneously with AGA National's Get-A-Member Campaign, which means you are eligible to get rewards from both!!
