NATIONAL CREDIT UNION FOUNDATION

Credit union development education (de) program: the de program is an education program for established and emerging leaders within the credit union movement. This program explores how credit unions can leverage their unique business model to solve core development issues that prevent the prosperity and financial well-being of their members and communities. Participants take part in a number of lessons, activities and group projects to demonstrate effective learning and potential for application. Upon completion, attendees earn their credit union development educator (cude) designation. The de program is offered as an in-person and online training. Since 1982, more than 3,000 credit union professionals have earned their cude designation and used this new knowledge to improve the quality of life for their members, colleagues, and communities around the globe.
