ABOUT THIS EVENT

Consumer debt is on the rise and recent statistics report that the average household has over $18,000 in debt. Because of this high level of debt, credit unions are seeing more and more members experiencing financial problems. These problems are the direct result of members not having the needed knowledge or understanding of how to manage their finances, as well as, managing the level of debt.

Hear from industry experts and network with peers to better your ability to help your members reach their financial goals. All credit union staff who work in financial counseling, collections, and loan departments should attend to stay current on financial counseling practices.
