Join a number of Maine CU volunteers in taking advantage of some great learning opportunities available. Through the Credit Union National Association's (CUNA) Volunteer Achievement Program (VAP), volunteers have a number of courses that can be taken at their own pace.
(VAP) helps credit union volunteers learn to work effectively, make informed decisions, and improve credit union performance. Today's rapidly changing credit union climate has credit unions relying more heavily than ever on the leadership skills of their elected officials. In fact, to keep up with this pace more and more credit unions are requiring continuing education for their volunteers. VAP is your credit union's solution to find learning opportunities here for both new and experienced volunteers.
VAP self-study courses teach the philosophical and financial topics that board members and other volunteers need for their decision-making responsibilities. VAP is your credit union's key to strengthening the knowledge of volunteers on a wide range of topics from financial management to compliance to strategic leadership.
Some of the benefits for volunteers through this program include: Flexible courses to accommodate all schedules; Economical variety of courses to provide everything needed for your board and committees; More than 40 quick-reading courses that provide the core knowledge directors and volunteers need; All courses are written for volunteers, and cover topics including Credit Union Fundamentals, Board of Director and Supervisory Committee Fundamentals, Leadership, Marketing, Planning, and Regulatory Compliance; More than 30 years of proven credit union training experience goes into every course; and Various levels of volunteer recognition are available after successful completion of course exams.
