Welcome to the Dayton Chapter of the Institute of Management Accountants as we begin our 82nd year of operation.

I joined the IMA five years ago after beginning a new career in management accounting so that I could explore opportunities for professional certification and networking in the Miami Valley. As Harvey Mackay would say, I was taking steps to dig my well before I was thirsty by meeting other management accounting professionals in the Dayton area and by learning about becoming a Certified Management Accountant (CMA).

In addition to this website, our 2008-2009 chapter Program Book is available for download to guide you to all the scheduled activities for the year. Mark your calendars now for each monthly meeting and invite a friend, colleague, or fellow member to an evening of CPE and networking. Take a tip form Harvey Mackay to expand you network and build up your personal contacts. Your regular participation in the monthly meetings is the best way to enjoy the benefits of membership.
