GET THE OBL COMPLIANCE ADVANTAGE IN 2011 By Julie Kiplinger, OBL Manager of Professional Seminars & In-bank Training
Through an unbeatable platform of top-notch compliance training options and cost-effective in-bank compliance consulting for community banks, the Ohio Bankers League can help you navigate the often complicated requirements of the consumer compliance frontier in 2011. OBL programs are designed to strengthen your bank’s ability to manage the effort, as we focus specifically on balancing regulatory mandates with what is practical for your bank through compliance education, round table discussions and compliance consulting.
Compliance Education 2011 Community Bankers for Compliance Program This nationally-known comprehensive program, presented in 2010 through a partnership with Young & Associates, Inc., attracted 40 banks and more than 70 bankers to its quarterly seminars focusing on the most recent industry and regulatory developments. The program, which has gained regulatory approval, is returning to the OBL in 2011 and will continue to also feature a monthly Compliance Update e-newsletter, compliance hotline and member-only Web site. Next year’s program prices have been lowered. At $1,200 for a single participant from your bank or $1,500 for two participants – the value for face-to-face regulatory training cannot be beat, as the investment averages just over $185 per session. Non OBL members will be able to join the CBC Program for $1,500 or $1,800 respectively. New for 2011. Bankers can attend individual sessions. OBL member banks that are not members of the CBC can now choose to attend an individual session for $345 for the first person; and $145 for each additional representative for the same session. Banks that are not members of the OBL or the CBC can now attend an individual session for $425 per person. You pick the training date. In 2011, each quarterly seminar will be offered on two different dates. This will allow the OBL to expand the program to additional members while keeping a good presenter – attendee ratio, yet will still provide ample networking opportunities for our bankers.
