The ACFE has a total membership of nearly 50,000 members on six continents, and provides anti-fraud educational materials to over 300 Universities. The Pacific Northwest Chapter/ACFE consists of approximately 140 highly qualified fraud professionals. Members are accountants, auditors, financial managers, private investigators, educators, and anyone simply interested in joining the anti-fraud battle. The ACFE, and our Chapter mission, is to promote fraud prevention and detection through educational training programs. Our official mission statement can be found at http://www.acfe.com/about/about.asp. The benefits of belonging to a Chapter of the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners include, but are not limited to, networking opportunities, continuing professional education training, mentoring, promoting fraud awareness and leadership. Additional information about these programs can be found at http://www.acfe.com/community/chapters.asp. The ACFE requires all Certified Fraud Examiners (CFE) to attend 10 hours of fraud-specific training each year. The Chapter holds 6 fraud training events each year, which provide a forum for 32-40 hours of Continuing Professional Education (CPE) for our members. Additional training is provided directly by the ACFE. See the annual training calendar under the Events link for additional details about specific fraud topics to be presented at these Chapter events. Attending these fraud training events is not only inexpensive, but also an outstanding way to network with your fellow anti-fraud professionals.
