New Edition of Newsletter, Educational Resource for CU Board Members is Sent

TILLAMOOK, Ore..–The third edition of the excellent new education resource for credit union board members has been sent to subscribers.

The CU Board Brief, which was created in response to discussions with board members and was further built with their input, helps to meet directors’ educational requirements by informing them of big picture issues taking place in credit unions and financial services and provides potential discussion points in the board room, while not overwhelming readers with too much information.

The Credit Union Board Brief features approximately one-dozen paragraph-length descriptions of issues that deserve attention, and then an accommpanying link to the full story for more details.
