General Information

When it comes to sports, even the best players take time out once a year to refresh their skills, focus their minds and build up their muscles. And the same principle applies to credit union pros who want to stay on top of their game. At our spring training conferences, you’ll get top-notch instruction during the day with educational sessions aimed at making you a world-class competitor. You’ll also have free time in the evenings to relax around the pool, stroll along the beach or continue networking with your peers from across the nation. And we cap off every spring training conference with a group outing to the ballpark.
