AGA Philadelphia Chapter History

The AGA Philadelphia Chapter has a long-standing history of supporting government financial management professionals in the Greater Philadelphia area. Since its founding, the chapter has provided a platform for members to connect, share knowledge, and advance their careers through networking opportunities, continuing professional education (CPE), and support for the Certified Government Financial Manager (CGFM) certification.

Over the years, the chapter has grown into a vibrant community, hosting educational programs, workshops, and events that bring together federal, state, and local government financial professionals. These initiatives foster collaboration, professional development, and the exchange of best practices in public financial management, helping members stay informed and excel in their roles.

The Philadelphia Chapter’s dedication to excellence has earned national recognition from AGA, with awards for membership growth, recruitment, and chapter operations. Today, the chapter continues to serve as a leading resource for government accountants and financial managers, promoting transparency, integrity, and accountability while strengthening the professional community in the Philadelphia region.
