Daniel Thurman of Graduate School USA: CMA Program - Dinner meeting at the Holiday Inn Rosslyn

Dear IMA Nation’s Capital Chapter Members & Friends:

I am pleased to announce our October 19, 2011, dinner meeting at the Holiday Inn Rosslyn. Our dinner event will include a presentation by Daniel C. Thurman, Chair, Management Programs, Academic Programs Division, Graduate School USA. Dan will be discussing the many changes and the current status of the Certificate in Management Accounting (CMA) program. Next summer, the IMA will celebrate the 40th anniversary of the CMA program in Las Vegas. Dan was previously a member of the IMA staff, supporting program activities for chapters on the West Coast of the United States, including the CMA program.

For the NCC’s current CMAs, this would be a nice time to network with fellow CMAs in the area. The NCC would like to assist the current chapter CMAs in developing a network. By all means, we’d like to see and hear from you, particularly if you have in interest in special events oriented to the CMA and topics of interest to the group.

Although Dan is with the Graduate School USA, his comments will focus on the changes within the past two years to the CMA program—including transition to a two-part examination. This update will be of interest to candidates undertaking the current exam. It will also appeal to current CMAs interested in how the enhanced program is maintaining the credibility of their certification.

Please, make a reservation of the event through the IMA Chapter website at: http://www.imanationscapital.org/. While at the site, please consider also making reservations to attend the chapter’s October 15 morning ethics seminar and the ever-popular October 27 Government Contracting Seminar. The seminar is often fully-booked, so do make a prompt reservation.

David F. McCormick, DBA, CMA, CPA
