“I am honored to represent CFMA as Chairman this year,” says Mr. McLaughlin. “Along with the other Officers, I am committed to providing outstanding leadership for CFMA as we continue to grow by delivering exceptional value for our members and stakeholders. In working with our affiliate organization, the Institute of Certified Construction Financial Professionals (ICCIFP), I’m looking to further elevate the Certified Construction Industry Financial Professional (CCIFP) credential in recognizing the organization and industry leaders as professionals with the unique skillsets and a body of knowledge level of attainment over and above that of financial generalists. CFMA is the conduit for myriad levels of professional success for our membership, and I look forward to giving back to the association and to the industry as Chairman.”
