New Virtual Roundtables Scheduled for Next Week
Yesterday, we launched our first virtual meeting with CEOs and credit union executives. It allowed us all to collaborate, share and learn from one another. Thank you for those who attended and we hope you found it beneficial.

ICUL will be hosting multiple virtual roundtable meetings in the coming weeks to facilitate conversations between credit unions and subject-matter experts that are centered around Iowa credit union COVID-19 response. These roundtables will provide an opportunity for resource-sharing between credit unions and an outlet for questions. Notes will be posted to our resource page following each event. Please see below for the current schedule of meetings and topics for discussion. All meetings are set to be held at 1:30 p.m. on their respective dates. Please refer to the ICUL education page for the details of each event.
