CUES is pleased to announce Visa has signed on as the sponsor of CUES’ CEO Institute program through 2020.
“We’re honored and pleased Visa understands how important this event is to the future of the industry,” said John Pembroke, CUES’ president/CEO. “CEO Institute is seen by many as the pinnacle of a credit union leader’s professional education; graduates leave ready to fulfill the needs of their credit unions, backed by the unique perspective of three of the best business schools. Visa’s sponsorship helps assure this vital program will continue to be available to credit union executives.”
“The credit union space is about community, and we want to service that community with thoughtful investments for the long-term,” said Oliver Jenkyn, Group Executive of North America, Visa Inc. “Our goal is to provide a sustainable benefit that will build up the next generation of credit union leaders and ensure the long-term vitality of credit unions.”
CEO Institute is a challenging academic and leadership program tailored specifically for credit union executives, held at three of the nation’s most respected business schools. Dates for 2017 are:
- CEO Institute I: Strategic Planning, April 2-7, The Wharton School, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia
- CEO Institute II: Organizational Effectiveness, April 30-May 5, Samuel Curtis Johnson Graduate School of Management, Cornell University, Ithaca, N.Y.
- CEO Institute III: Strategic Leadership Development, May 7-12 or August 20-25, Darden School of Business, University of Virginia, Charlottesville, Va.
Attendees earn up to 38 Continuing Professional Education (CPE) credits each week. Executives who complete all three years of the CEO Institute program and two post-segment projects earn the prestigious Certified Chief Executive (CCE) designation. Recent statistics released by Industry Insights indicate credit union executives holding the CCE designation earn a higher salary than their peers without it. The study showed CFOs with the designation typically earn a 23 percent premium; COOs, a 14.8 percent premium; and CEOs, a 6.3 percent premium.
