The Walker Award is named for Morris R. "Red" Walker, CFE (1938-1989), a Charter Member and nationally recognized fraud examiner. Also established in 1989, the Walker Award is given to the person receiving the highest annual score on the CFE Exam.

This year’s Walker Award winner is Ronald Empedrad. Congratulations, Ronald!
