A MESSAGE FROM THE PRESIDENT

Greetings and welcome to the website for the Northern California Fraud Investigators Association (N.C.F.I.A.). I am both pleased and honored to be the President of this professional organization. The past presidents of the N.C.F.I.A. have set a high benchmark for me to live up to, however, they have also left a good path for me to follow. The mission and goals of the N.C.F.I.A. are sound and offer one of the best forums available for training and networking to those involved in the anti-fraud effort.

As President, I hope to further our goals by embracing and utilizing our strongest asset, the membership of our association. Our membership is made up of some of the most knowledgeable fraud fighters in the business. While it is important to remember and thank those who have made this association one of the best anti-fraud associations in the country, we should also reach out to our new and existing members for their expertise, experience and future leadership. Continuing to network with and develop strong relationships with related associations, industry groups and others will also strengthen the skills, knowledge and abilities of our members.

On behalf of myself and the Board of Directors the N.C.F.I.A., I hope you will find our member services useful and educational. If you are current member of N.C.F.I.A., welcome back and I hope to see you at our next quarterly meeting. If you are not a member and involved in the anti-fraud effort, please consider joining this fine organization. Thank you for your continued support.

Steven Begley
President 2008-2009
