Regional Chief Financial Officers
The Chief Finance Officers from the college and university campuses meet in groups determined by geographic region (Metro Alliance, Northeast, Central/Northern and Southern) to discuss issues and challenges, share ideas and best practices, and encourage collaborations for cost savings and efficiencies.
Each regional group has a chair who is responsible for calling meetings and setting agendas.
