About our Chapter
The Inland Empire Area Chapter supports the international mission of the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners through its educational programs and seminars, which promote an enhanced awareness of fraud prevention, detection and investigation techniques among its membership and throughout the business and law enforcement communities. At the same time, program attendees are provided an opportunity to earn their annual continuing education credits and network with a diverse group of professionals in related fields.
The benefits of Chapter membership include:
- Discounts on Chapter seminars;
- The opportunity to earn continuing professional education credit at member rates;
- Excellent professional networking opportunities.
Membership in the Inland Empire chapter is separate from membership with the national association. Annual dues are collected in January each year, for that calendar year. If you join mid-year, your dues will be prorated for the first year. Members who have not paid their dues within 30 days of the renewal date will be moved to inactive status until current dues have been received.
