Our objectives include developing mutually understandable procedures of accounting and financial reporting, budgeting and capital planning, cash management, financial administration, and debt management; encouraging the use of consistent technology, classification, and principals; training qualified public officials and employees; and identifying ethical, high quality government service.

In addition, it is our goal to facilitate closer relationships and understanding among those concerned with public finance in Missouri while providing a system of networking, training and information sharing among finance officers. We provide training and a forum for the discussion of common issues, problems or other objectives of mutual interest to public finance officers.

The chapters provide a variety of seminars and training opportunities.
