WASHINGTON — The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency today announced its schedule of workshops for national community bank directors.
“Taught by seasoned OCC examiners, these workshops give practical training and guidance to directors of national community banks that they can rely on,” said Comptroller of the Currency John C. Dugan.
This year the OCC has added a workshop
for community bank directors entitled “A New Director’s
Challenge: Mastering the Basics
.” This two-day program, scheduled in Washington D.C.,
April 16-18, is geared primarily to directors with less than
three years of experience. The workshop should be particularly
valuable to directors of new national banks, many of whom are
also new to the industry. However, longer tenured directors
who would like to review the fundamental requirements of their
position may also find the workshop useful.
Additionally, the OCC continues to offer three
one-day workshops:
- “Understanding the OCC’s Risk
Assessment Process”
- “Compliance Risk: What Director’s
Need to Know”
- “Credit Risk: A Director’s Focus”
These
workshops are offered around the country throughout the year
and are geared
primarily to outside directors of national community banks
with assets of less than $1 billion. Management directors
may also find the workshop beneficial. Space
is limited to 50 participants to promote open and targeted
dialogue.
Attendees receive pre-course reading and course
materials, an OCC telephone seminar CD, other supervisory
material, a continental breakfast and lunch.
