Financial Administrator Series (FAS)
The Financial Administrator Series (FAS) is a professional development opportunity for financial administrators at the University of Arizona sponsored by the Financial Services Office and Research, Discovery & Innovation. The emphasis of the program is on critical thinking and analysis rather than the “how to” focus of many training sessions and covers topics that high level financial administrators encounter in their positions.
