NCUA Diversity Self-Assessment Tool Available

​Credit Unions are encouraged to complete the NCUA's Voluntary Credit Union Diversity Self-Assessment before Jan. 15, 2022. The self-assessment is a valuable tool for credit unions that want to commit to the principles of diversity, equity, inclusion, and belonging. With a set of best practices for assessing your workforce development, procurement practices, and transparency practices, the self-assessment can provide a fuller and more objective picture of how your institution is meeting its diversity objectives, or how you might improve in your inclusion efforts. 

​Once submitted, the NCUA aggregates the data from the assessment and without identifying any single respondent, issues an annual report on the state of diversity, equity, and inclusion throughout the credit union system. Based on the state of the credit union system, the NCUA also creates and makes available resources that credit unions can use to address challenges and opportunities in diversity, equity, and inclusion.
