The Minnesota Credit Union Network is starting the new year with a full line up of virtual Peer-to-Peer (P2P) sessions. Last year, the Network provided 19 P2P roundtables, bringing together 425 attendees representing 57 different credit unions. Attendees participated in sessions with expert panels and presenters, facilitated conversation and group discussion.
As we look forward to the new year, P2Ps will continue virtually to provide programming and networking opportunities, with an increased focus on creating forums that foster credit union collaboration. We are excited to be launching a new event platform which will assist in providing an enhanced virtual experience. Below is our list of scheduled P2Ps for the spring of 2021.

Here are a few things our participants have said about the sessions: “I like that there was some time for open discussion between everyone. It's nice to hear how each place approaches different things. Brings to light things we may not have thought of.” “Having these virtual sessions allows more people to participate without regard to location.” “I enjoyed hearing what other CUs are doing and how they are operating through their challenges, as well as the open discussion, to be able to hear input or suggestions from other CUs.” “Speakers had interesting topics and engaged the participants for feedback.” With questions, please reach out to Ben Hering, Director of Engagement. |
