I am pleased to announce that on December 15 and 16, 2020, the Office of the State Controller will hold its annual Financial Conference for Chief Fiscal Officers and agency designated representatives. In respect for everyone’s safety and the importance of social distancing, this conference will be presented virtually rather than in person. This virtual conference will include topics such as the economic outlook for the State and nation, State Budget updates, State Controller updates, cybersecurity, proposed changes in governmental accounting, communications, and professional development.
In addition, the recipients of the State Controller's Fiscal Integrity Award and the Internal Audit Award of Excellence will be announced during the conference. Attendance will qualify for up to eight hours of CPE credit. The course description is attached for your review. Instructor biographies are available on OSC’s website.
The registration fee is $40 per attendee. To register for this conference, visit the Office of the State Controller's website. Please register as soon as possible as the registration deadline is Tuesday, December 8, 2020. Payments must be made on or before this date. After this date, no requests for refunds will be considered. Please refer to OSC’s registration policies for more information regarding refunds, cancellations, or complaints.
Payment can be made by credit card or electronic transfer in the Cash Management Control System (CMCS) to the Office of the State Controller. Agencies should register attendees individually (with separate email addresses). Agencies using CMCS can submit one payment to cover all registration fees if all necessary notations have been made.
