Mountain America Credit Union Earns National Awards for Education
WEST JORDAN, UT (June 25, 2013) Mountain America Credit Union has earned two Excellence Awards from the Credit Union National Association (CUNA) HR/TD Council, which recognizes and honors credit unions that exemplify excellence in human resources and training.
Mountain America won in the Council’s Employee Engagement category for its “How-to Training Videos,” a series of videos created in-house for use in the classroom that demonstrate a real-life environment using an attractive and audience-engaging medium.
The credit union also won the HR/TD Management Practices award for its “IRA ELearning Suite,” which successfully converted an entire operational training class to eLearning. The set of courses are accessible 24/7, provide a consistent message and can be revised as needed.
“Independent recognition is always a plus, as it validates our commitment to member value through our education and training programs,” said Suzanne Oliver, senior vice president of educational services and governmental affairs for Mountain America Credit Union. “These awards are particularly significant because the CUNA HR/TD Council Excellence Awards are the standard of excellence for HR and training & development programs in our industry.”
The CUNA HR/TD Council is a national network of more than 750 credit union human resource and training professionals. More information on the HR/TD Excellence Awards and the list of winners can be viewed online here.
