Workshop 2023 with National CU Foundation
Workshop 2023 is an immersive learning event led by the National Credit Union Foundation. It builds from the framework of the Foundation’s signature Development Education (DE) Program to help credit union leaders understand how they can better reach, engage and serve Hispanic communities to achieve long-term growth and success. This directly ties into financial well-being for all in that it helps attendees think about their member demographics and to learn the steps all credit unions can take to better serve Hispanic communities across the country. This event will be held in El Paso, Texas on October 10 – 13. Registration and addition information can be found here.
