Do I need any special knowledge or experience?
No – just the desire to get involved, make a difference, and enhance your CFMA experience!

How often do committees meet?
It varies. Some meet monthly, others less often. Meetings are held via teleconferences and usually last an hour or less.

What happens if I can’t make every meeting?
Not a problem. We understand you have a busy schedule with many commitments. We just ask that you make the majority of them.

I am (or was) very involved in my chapter and its committees. Why should I join a national committee?
National committees are made up of folks from all over the country, so you’ll gain a whole new perspective on things. Plus, working at the national level allows you to see the “Big Picture” and have input into issues of national importance.

I don’t have enough time in the day now! How can I take on one more thing?
Getting involved at the national level is more than just “something else” you have to do. The friends, contacts, knowledge, and skills you will gain are the dividends you’ll enjoy from making this investment in yourself and your career.
