2021 Controller's Welcome Message

I am pleased to announce that on December 14 and 15, 2021, the Office of the State Controller will host its annual Financial Conference for Chief Fiscal Officers and agency designated representatives.  In respect for everyone’s safety and the importance of social distancing, this conference will be presented virtually rather than in person.  This virtual conference will include topics such as the fiscal condition of states, economic outlook for the State and nation, professional development, and updates from State Budget and the NC Pandemic Recovery Office, State Controller and State Auditor.  

In addition, the recipients of the State Controller’s Fiscal Integrity Award and the Internal Audit Award of Excellence will be announced during the conference. Attendance will qualify for up to eight hours of CPE credit. The course description is attached for your review. Instructor biographies are available on the Office of the State Controller's website.

The registration fee is $30 per attendee.  To register for this conference, visit the Office of the State Controller's website.  Please register as soon as possible, as the registration deadline is Tuesday, December 7, 2021.  Payments must be made on or before this date.  After this date, no requests for refunds will be considered.  Please refer to OSC’s registration policies for more information regarding refunds, cancellations, or complaints.
