New Global Recognition for IAFM Qualifications

May 12, 2009

IMPROVED GLOBAL RECOGNITION FOR IAFM QUALIFICATIONS

The International Academy of Financial Management and it's membership was today recognized by two very distinguished US-based bodies.

The American National Standards Institute is the US institute that oversees the creation, promulgation and use of thousands of norms and guidelines that directly impact businesses in nearly every sector. ANSI is also actively engaged in accrediting programs that assess conformance to standard. IAFM was today officially made a member of ANSI and we are proud to add this recognition to our growing global credibility.

The National Organization for Competency Assurance (NOCA) is a non-profit, 501(c)(3) organization dedicated to providing educational, networking and advocacy resources for the credentialing community.  NOCA's accrediting body, the National Commission for Certifying Agencies (NCCA), evaluates certification organization for compliance with the NCCA Standards for the Accreditation of Certification Programs. IAFM is pleased to have been awarded membership status with NOCA giving our members even more recognition in the critical USA marketplace.

Brett King, CEO and a member of the Board of Governors commented that "the International Academy of Financial Management continues to seek the involvement of best-practice partners who can provide our members with greater professional recognition for their professional designations. The NOCA and ANSI recognition is just another example of how the Board is working to improve the branding of IAFM and the credibility of our qualifications in the marketplace..."
