The partnership will allow for the continued delivery of high-quality, easily accessible educational programs to CFMA members and the construction industry overall.
“The renewal of this partnership demonstrates Sage’s dedication to the education of construction financial managers (CFMs). With Sage’s support, CFMA has been able to develop new courses and ensure that its members and other professionals in the industry continue to receive relevant high-quality education. Thousands of CFMs attend these courses annually, and with an average course score of 9.2 out of 10, the value of this partnership is unmistakable,” said CFMA President & CEO Stuart Binstock.
In working together to develop educational content for CFMs in the construction industry, Sage continues to serve as the official sponsor of the Risk Management & Surety educational track at CFMA’s Annual Conference & Exhibition and other CFMA Online Courses including:

As a sponsor of CFMA’s Chapter Courses, the partnership between Sage and CFMA continues to help make educational programs available for presentation across CFMA’s 99 Chapters.
