Based on member feedback, we are excited to share the following enhancements to our Peer-to-Peer programing. In 2024 our P2P’s will be conducted virtually six times a year with three in the spring and three in the fall. Each session will include a speaker on a hot topic that effects multiple areas of your credit union. We’ll also break into department areas for smaller group peer discussion on how that topic pertains to various teams. We hope this new format continues to provide credit union professionals the opportunity to participate in cooperative meetings to network and exchange ideas; and provides your teams the opportunity to learn about pertinent topics that prompts additional conversations at your credit union. Each session will be held from 1:00-3:00 pm on the dates below. Topics for our Spring P2P sessions are noted. Please reach out to Xiong Lee if you have topic suggestions for the Fall sessions.
