This resolution commemorates Certified Government Financial Manager (CGFM) Month in March 2025, recognizing the professional achievements and contributions of government financial managers affiliated with the Association of Government Accountants (AGA). The resolution highlights that AGA has approximately 13,000 members across 80 chapters, with 611 members in Tennessee's Nashville, Knoxville, and Chattanooga chapters who are employed as state, federal, municipal, and private-sector accountants, auditors, and financial managers. It emphasizes the CGFM program's rigorous certification process, which requires candidates to have appropriate educational and employment backgrounds, pass a three-part examination covering governmental financial management, and maintain certification by completing 80 hours of continuing professional education every two years. The resolution celebrates these professionals' commitment to advancing government accountability, maintaining high standards of conduct, and developing expertise in increasingly complex financial management requirements. The document also provides for the preparation of an official copy of the resolution to be made available upon request.
