Together with more than 80,000 members, the ACFE is reducing business fraud world-wide and inspiring public confidence in the integrity and objectivity within the profession.
The Certified Fraud Examiner (CFE) credential denotes proven expertise in fraud prevention, detection and deterrence.

CFEs around the world help protect the global economy by uncovering fraud and implementing processes to prevent fraud from occurring in the first place.
