CLEVELAND, Ohio – Last month, 36 credit union professionals from 14 law enforcement credit unions attended the fourth annual Police Officers’ Credit Union Conference, sponsored by Corporate Central Credit Union and Corporate One Federal Credit Union and held in Cleveland.
Attendees discussed unique issues and opportunities related to serving the men and women who serve us all – police officers.
“I personally enjoyed the educational opportunities where the smaller credit unions like mine can derive the same benefit as the larger ones. No matter the size, law enforcement credit unions all experience the same issues,” said Darrell Basler, CEO of Greater Hartford Police FCU. “The networking opportunity this conference provides is invaluable,” he said.
Topics included disaster recovery, reverse mortgages, risk-based capital, defending and developing market share, cross-selling strategies, and employee incentives.
“The Police Officers’ Credit Union Conference provides a unique opportunity for law enforcement credit unions to collaborate and share ideas,” said Paul Hixon, assistant vice president, marketing and communications manager for Corporate One. “Corporate One counts dozens of police and fire credit unions as members and we’re proud to support this important event,” he said.
“Corporate Central Credit Union is honored to have been involved with this program for the past three years,” said Ken Bator, vice president – business development for Corporate Central. “I am personally humbled to have been involved with this event since its inception in 2004 and to see how well it has grown. The true credit union spirit of cooperation and member focus is truly alive and well in the form of the Police Officers Credit Union Conference.”
