Heard in the Halls: Powering Up Through Learning and Networking

"I chose to attend the ACFE conference this year because I wanted to gain more industry knowledge and more advanced technique opportunities that I can take back to my team. My goal is to become one of the most experienced CFEs in the industry so that I not only advance my career but I can teach those that are coming along behind me." — Keoji Collins, CFE, Auditor, U.S. Department of State

"I'm from the Atlanta, Georgia, chapter. This is one of the greatest places to meet and network with peers to learn other tricks of the trade that you don't get just working by yourself." — Rusty Lane, CFE, CGMA, CPA, Director, Moore Colson

"I want to learn how to apply data analytics and data monitoring culturally across different types of organizations." — Erin Frank, Financial Analyst, U.S. Department of State

"I'm president of the Pittsburgh chapter. I'm here for the chapter reps meeting and it's just an outstanding way for the local chapters to take away various tidbits and tips, and network with other chapters to find out what works and doesn't work well." — James Fellin, CFE, CFF, Managing Director, The Nottingham Group, LLC

"I’m here to network and learn about fraud investigation and what kinds of technology people use and how they analyze information. [At the First-Time Attendee Reception] Alexander and Adams here are telling me what kind of technology they’re using and what I need to do moving forward when different scenarios come up." — Yomi Opeyemi Olutayo, CFE, CICA, CISA, IT Audit Manager, EY
