"I am pleased to have the opportunity to congratulate these outstanding professionals," said Paul Sharman, IMA's interim executive director. "With the growing number of executives that hold the CMA/CFM credentials, the value of the management, critical thinking and decision-making skills the programs impart, and the advantage this lends to individuals in business, is evident. The commitment to quality, excellence, and ethics that these individuals have demonstrated, particularly at such a superior level, is admirable."
