CFO Alumni Affiliate Network

Mission Statement

The San Jose State University CFO Alumni Affiliate Network creates opportunities that connect alumni who are current or past Chief Financial Officers with other alumni, faculty and students, fostering an open channel of communication with the university and access to its resources, and enhancing the lifelong Spartan experience. Every individual who has attended 菠菜网lol正规平台 and has held a CFO position is a member of the Network and invited to participate in our events and activities.

Recent Events

On October 17, 2017, more than 100 CFO alumni, business students, faculty, administration and sponsors attended the 2^nd Annual Gathering of the CFO Alumni Affiliate Network, held at the new 菠菜网lol正规平台 Student Union Theatre.
