SEC Professionals Group Information

The SEC Professionals Group is an informal community of financial and legal professionals who are actively involved in the preparation and filing of financial reports with the SEC. The purpose of the group is to foster communication and shared knowledge among members on matters of professional interest. Formed by seven companies in December of 2008, membership has since grown to over 8300 members. There is no charge to join the Group or to attend meetings. The Group meets quarterly to discuss issues of common professional interest, including XBRL, IFRS and specific accounting and reporting issues suggested by the members. These meetings are hosted by member companies (including Apple, eBay, Cisco, Hewlett Packard). Meeting conversations are off-the-record and remain within the group. Member companies typically send two or more people to the meetings in person or by web/telephone. We have 36 chapter across the country.
