KENTUCKY BANKS & THE COVID-19 PANDEMIC EDUCATION UPDATE by Natalie Kaelin KBA Director of Education nkaelin@kybanks.com
Here For You, Now More Than Ever We are certainly living in times I could have never imagined. In the Education department, we are all working from home, communicating as often as possible, and trying to adapt to these changed times. We wanted to give you an update of where we are and what we are doing.
It’s difficult to sit at a computer for training for an entire day, so we are thinking outside the box to allow for better training virtually. We hope this will allow us to keep offering the varying education we always do with the same excellence we always have.
First of all, our bankers are our priority, so our focus is providing everything you may need in the realm of Education. We have postponed most in-person programs through June, and we are hard at work figuring out the best way to still provide training to our bankers. We have been offering webinars throughout this time, but we are also going to attempt to reschedule some of our postponed training as webinar series.
We have also limited our emails so that you are getting the most current and important information for your bank - look for our Education Alliance E-bits email every Tuesday which will have our most current offerings and information.
For example, we had a CFO Conference scheduled for May which has now been canceled as an in-person program. We are working with the speakers to create a four-week series, same day and time which will provide all the information from that conference.
Remember, you can always go to kybanks.com (homepage shown below) to see all the Education information there as well. It is also a wonderful resource for navigating the COVID-19 pandemic. At the end of the day, what I want you to know, is we are here for you, now more than ever. If there is something we can do, please let us know.
