DURATION: 70 MINUTES
Giving new directors early training on how a Board’s legal role can help that new director get off to a good start. This course will help a new director understand their role, the essential legal requirements spelled out in the Credit Union Act, the NCUA Rules and Regulations, and in your own bylaws. With this training, a new director can become an effective contributor to your board much more quickly.
After taking this session, new directors will:
- Understand how credit unions differ from banks and why that is so important
- Know the duties and responsibilities of a director
- Be able to engage effectively in what makes a director and a Board valuable to a credit union
This session is ideal for first-term directors and associate directors who aspire to a board position. It is also great for long-term directors who need a refresher on effective governance.
