Vote for the 2024-2025 ACFE Board of Regents

The ACFE Board of Regents sets standards to promote professionalism and ensure the reputation of our association as well as the Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) credential. The Regents have sole authority over the admission of members, including, but not limited to, examination standards. They also establish Continuing Professional Education (CPE) requirements and are responsible for establishing, modifying and enforcing the CFE Code of Professional Ethics, as well as all other matters necessary to maintain the high standards of the ACFE.
