Who we are:

The Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) credential denotes proven expertise in fraud prevention, detection and deterrence.
There are currently more than 50,000 CFEs worldwide. As experts in the four major areas of fraud, CFEs are trained to identify the warning signs and red flags that indicate evidence of fraud and fraud risk.
To become a CFE, one must pass a rigorous examination administered by the Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE), meet specific education and professional requirements, exemplify the highest moral and ethical standards and agree to abide by the CFE Code of Professional Ethics.
The FBI officially recognizes the CFE credential as a critical skill.
The U.S. Department of Defense officially recognizes the CFE credential.
Forensic Audits and Special Investigations Unit (FSI) for the Government Accountability Office announced that all professionals in the FSI unit must obtain their CFE credential.
