Google Group started for CMA Candidates

It's been frustrating that we haven't yet managed to restart our CMA Study group, as we are still waiting for updated video CMA study materials to become available. In the mean-time, we've begun a Google Group open to all SFIMA members who are currently studying for any of the CMA exams. Our thought was that in lieu of a self-study group, at least we could provide a forum for studiers to review material and ask questions. Email info@sfima.org if you'd like to join our Google Group, or in you would like more information.

www.ExcelInAccounting.com Moving to Meetup.com

We've retired our old website, and have chosen to move our hub for the Excel in Accounting program to Meetup.com. It's accessible at our old url: www.excelinaccounting.com, or at: meetup.com. We felt a meetup.com site would be a better way for group participants to find out about upcoming excel training sessions and keep in touch with other group members. Please check in out to see upcoming events!

LinkedIn Group for SFIMA

Join our SFIMA group on LinkedIn.com, a web site where professionals network with each other, find jobs, discuss topics of interest, and leverage each other's connections. All SFIMA members are welcome to join. This group is a perfect place to post or find accounting and finance jobs in San Francisco. We hope it will also foster discussions about SFIMA activities and become a forum where our members can connect.
