The FEI Twin Cities chapter's Trusted Peer Groups program is an opportunity for FEI Members to meet in small groups for facilitated discussion with finance professionals in similar positions. Topics include challenges, successes, shared interests, career paths, best practices, insights for the group and others. 

Diverse perspectives create value. The peer group consists of professionals from various industries bringing a range of backgrounds and experiences to the table. The purpose of the Trusted Peer Groups is to give FEI members an opportunity to increase their knowledge and performance.
