The Middle Tennessee Chapter was founded in the spring of 1992. It is one of more than 130 worldwide chapters sponsored by the internationally-renowned Association of Certified Fraud Examiners (ACFE). The primary mission of the ACFE is to reduce the incidence of fraud and white-collar crime and to assist its membership with detection and deterrence.

Serving the entire Middle Tennessee region as the representative of the ACFE, the chapter and its members support the mission through educational programs and seminars, networking opportunities and college scholarships.
