Finance & Audit Committee

The Governing Board's Finance and Audit Committee facilitates continued improvements in College financial accountability and transparency. As part of its work, the Committee allows for better sharing of financial information with the Governing Board and other constituencies, including the public.

The Committee consists of:

• Two PCC Governing Board Members
• Five to eight community representatives
  • Professionally knowledgeable about finance, accounting, auditing, and/or investments
  • Recommended by the chairperson of the Committee and appointed by the PCC Governing Board

All members of the Committee shall be familiar with: 

• The basics of PCC finance and accounting practices
• Understand PCC’s business
• Generally understand internal control and risk management framework

To obtain this familiarity and understanding, Committee members will be provided training conducted by PCC.

Length of service will be expected to be at least one year and will be a maximum of two three-year terms. Due to the nature of some of the information, Committee members will be required to sign a confidentiality statement.

The Committee will meet no fewer than four times per year and more often as needed. All Committee members are expected to attend each meeting, in person or via tele- or videoconference. State of Arizona open meeting statutes A.R.S. §§ 38-431 to 431.09 will be applicable.

If you meet the qualifications above and are interested in becoming a member of the College’s Finance and Audit Committee, please email a letter of interest and your resume to financeadmin@pima.edu.
