An interactive & inspiring workshop all about co-operatives!
Few things are more important to the success of a co-op than
the support of its stakeholders who believe in its purpose & principles.
​
Build a stronger, more resilient co-operative by empowering your members, staff, and directors with the knowledge and tools to actively engage in your co-op. Promote a culture of trust and collaboration by showcasing the benefits of being part of the co-operative movement.
​
Our award-winning presenters will educate, engage and inspire through our interactive ON Board program, helping your co-op foster a new generation of co-op champions!

TESTIMONIALS
Across all staff and the board ongoing education is a priority with a continued focus on both the technical (i.e. insurance and financial services knowledge) and the co-operative so that we all work together jointly to ensure we achieve our goals and maintain our co-operative identity. We recognize that we’ll never be able to check a box for ‘complete’ when it comes to our co-operative identity and co-operative education; this focus is ongoing and evolving as our organization changes and grows.

​
“When we onboard new staff we think it’s important for them to learn more about credit unions and our system partners who support us in providing products & services to our Owners. A big part of that is educating new staff on the co-operative principles and how these co-operative principles set credit unions apart from other financial institutions."
