Last month, the Kansas Credit Union Association formed CUnext: Young Leaders of Kansas, a state-wide educational and networking group for 18- to 30-year-old credit union employees, and it isn't the first group of its kind.
Young, passionate credit union employees across the country are banding together with the goal of furthering their own careers as well as making a positive impact on the credit union industry. Groups such as the Portland, Ore.-based Young Credit Union Professionals, the Mid- America Credit Union Association's Young Credit Union Professional Network and the Credit Union Association of New York's Young Professionals Commission are allowing Gen Y credit union employees to enhance their professional lives through organized events focused on education, networking and advocacy.
CUnext members attended two kick-off meetings in April, the first in Topeka to talk to state legislators and learn about credit union advocacy, and the second at the KCUA annual meeting, where they took part in networking and educational sessions with other credit union professionals.
