The REAL Focus: As the fall RP3 session winds down, The League makes plans for spring session

Jill Weber, The League's Director of Member Solutions

As the fall session of the REAL Progress & Pathways to Prosperity program comes to an end, we’re gearing up for the spring session, which will begin on Monday, Jan. 25.

We’ll be holding an informational webinar at 1 p.m. Jan. 13 to update participants on the program and to serve as a refresher for those who will be starting the coursework.

I’d also like to remind people participating in the fall session that the deadline for coursework to be completed is Dec. 31. So far more than 12,046 courses have been completed. Keep up the good work!

The League has made it easier to keep track of important REAL Solutions® related trainings, events and webinars through its introduction of the REAL Solutions® calendar. The REAL Solutions® calendar is located on the front page of the REAL Solutions® website. We’ll be adding more dates to the calendar as we get them so keep checking back!

I’d also like to welcome our newest REAL Solutions® credit union: Rock County Employees Credit Union!

In case you missed it, I also wanted to bring your attention to the latest archived CU Tomorrow webinar: CU Tomorrow Conversation #2: Goals, Assessments, & Focus Groups. Don’t forget, the next CU Tomorrow webinar on Social Media and What’s Next in Online Delivery will be held on Jan. 14.

Lastly, today, Dec. 18, is the last day to vote for your favorite member testimonial as part of the National Credit Union Foundation’s video contest. Community First Credit Union is representing Wisconsin in the contest with its video about the Gregory Family. Show your support by helping them win this great honor, as well as help Wisconsin credit unions gain recognition for their REAL Solutions efforts.
