In a couple of weeks, we’ll be presenting an afternoon technology training session for the Fort Worth Chapter called Web 2.0 and Credit Unions: Beyond Traditional Websites.
There’s a big shift occurring in how the Internet is being used by some very innovative credit unions and credit union organizations. Today’s “Web” has moved from being an information delivery system into serving as a collaboration system, thus the Web 2.0 moniker.
At a session with the Chapter last October, we fielded a lot of questions about blogs and wikis, and our upcoming training session will dive into these and other free tools that you can use to communicate and collaborate with members, coworkers, and other credit union innovators.
We’ll explain how credit unions are uniquely positioned to take advantage of the openness and transparency of these emerging technologies, and how you can use them to reach members, the underbanked, and the elusive young adult market in a more personal way online.
Also, we’re going to teach you how to manage the information available through these new tools without getting a case of “information overload.”
Hope to see you there!
This training session will be conducted by Matt Dean and Trey Reeme of Trabian, a website development and consulting company based out of Plano, Texas. Their recent client list includes industry innovators such as the Filene Research Institute, Stanford Federal Credit Union, and Fort Worth’s own Tarrant County Credit Union. Trabian also sponsors the Open Source CU credit union blog.

On November 9th we had a great turnout for some very valuable training on the Bank Secrecy Act and accounting changes necessitated by changes in call reporting. I for one had a few things to do when I got back to the office!
John Zasada and Dan Moulton from one of our Preferred Partners RSM McGladrey were the presenters.
For those of you interested in the handouts, here you go!
