What does FMAC do?

  • FMAC aids in the development of high quality budgetary and fiscal information that is uniform throughout state government by sharing financial best practices and providing a communications network among state fiscal staff.
  • FMAC helps strengthen the capability and competency of state financial personnel by providing free or low cost training and professional development courses.
