“We know that while there are many introductory level and broad overview compliance resources for credit union lenders, there are very few options available for those lending and compliance professionals who wish to go much deeper into the details of lending compliance regulations,” said Tracy Blaske, Manager of Compliance at CUNA. “The new CUNA Lending Compliance School will fill this much needed gap and provide lending and compliance professionals the type of targeted, intense study they need to holistically comprehend the entire world of lending compliance.”
