The program’s goal is to increase students’ awareness of the CMA® (Certified Management Accountant) certification, the many benefits of IMA membership, and the wide range of career possibilities in the management accounting and finance profession.
Launched in January 2016 with approximately 40 volunteers, the Campus Influencers program now involves more than 240 volunteers. Several Campus Influencers have shown excellence in their impact on, and commitment to, the program, including four “Superstars” who each made more than six campus visits in 2020:
Marvin Rosen

In addition, the following Campus Influencers made at least two campus visits:
