Joint Training with VGFOA
Radford University's Governmental and Nonprofit Assistance Center (GNAC) and the Virginia Government Finance Officers' Association (VGFOA) have formed a strategic partnership to provide quality training throughout Virginia. Training programs cover a wide range of topics and are offered at different locations around Virginia. View a list of upcoming VGFOA courses.
The GNAC and the VGFOA have also established the joint Virginia Government Finance Officers/Radford University Certificate Program. The purpose of this joint certificate program is to provide training in key areas for finance professionals working in state and local governments in Virginia. The program will ensure that individuals receiving the certificate will have a broad knowledge in government finance, as well as knowledge related to governments in Virginia. Because the program is structured to provide the knowledge covered on the CPFO exams, it will provide instructional support for those who wish to pursue that certification. View information about the requirements of the program.
Over 200 government finance professionals from around Virginia have received the joint certificate. For a list of certificate holders, click here.
