Welcome to FEI, Australia's leading association for chief financial officers and other financial executives

Our mentoring program for 2009/10 has 40 mentorees: 18 in Sydney, 15 in Melbourne and 7 in Brisbane.  Feedback from the mentorees has again been very positive. 

If you know major companies or their CFOs who are not involved in the program and may be interested in joining the program in April 2010, please contact Robin Cumming, FEI's Secretary as organising the 2010/11 program is already under way.  His contact details are 0418 294 958 and racumming@fei.org.au.

Our program for CFOs of mid-tier companies started in Sydney in September and in Melbourne in October.  Althought the first two sessions in both cities have already taken place, if you are interested in joining please contact the Secretary, Robin Cumming (the price will be adjusted for the sessions missed).  Click below for further details.
