CUNA Regulatory Compliance Certification Schools

March 31-April 5, 2019 - Louisville, KY, September 8-13, 2019 - Dallas, TX

  • Be a Credible Voice of Compliance

    When your credit union is compliant, operations run smoothly and unnecessary risks are reduced. However, maintaining a regulatory foundation and learning new approaches is easier said than done.


    To meet the educational needs of new and experienced compliance professionals, CUNA offers two schools, Introduction and Update.


    Introduction delivers the fundamentals of credit union compliance in easy-to-understand terms, helping those who are newer understand regulatory complexities. Those with more experience will appreciate the basic review and renew their confidence. Attendees will have the opportunity to earn the Credit Union Compliance Expert (CUCE) designation.


    Update incorporates a new focus to assist you in solidifying your foundational knowledge, taking a risk approach to compliance, and learning by asset size. Current CUCE designees can also recertify their designation. Highlights of this year's event include:

    • Hear from keynote speaker Holly Hoffman, the last woman standing on “Survivor Nicaragua,” who will share how compliance professionals can face their challenges in intuitive, honest and adaptable ways.
    • A recommitment to the foundation of compliance, including a new two-part general session diving into regulatory changes in the last three years and deep dive breakout sessions covering Regulation Z, share insurance and mortgage
    • An experiential learning trip to Louisville's Federal Reserve Administrative Branch. Learn more about who they are and what they do.
    • Risk-based approaches to compliance, including sessions like 2019 Litigation Trends Affecting Financial Institutions, Melding Audit and Compliance and a peer panel 
    • Deep dive breakout sessions in specialized areas like auditing for fair lending and identifying risks within disclosures
    • Asset-sized breakouts for risk management and cybersecurity topics
