Edcomm Banker’s Academy Launches Credit Union EFA Training Program for Individuals

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) November 2, 2010 -- New York, NY, November 02, 2010 -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently launched its Credit Union Elder Financial Abuse (EFA) training program for individuals looking to begin or advance their career in the financial services industry. The same great program that has been used by thousands of credit unions, Focus on Elder Financial Abuse for Credit Unions provides individuals the knowledge, skills and certification needed to prevent and detect elder financial abuse at their credit union.

Each year, millions of seniors are the victims of financial exploitation in the U.S. Sadly, over 80 percent of these abuse cases go unreported. In response, legislation is being passed across the country holding credit unions liable should they fail to report suspicions of elder financial abuse.

Focus on Elder Financial Abuse for Credit Unions, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, covers: defining elder financial abuse and the laws governing it, detecting the red flags of elder financial abuse and reporting elder financial abuse properly. Focus on Elder Financial Abuse for Credit Unions teaches participants how to identify elder abuse and how to protect both their customers and the credit union with accurate, compliant reporting. Upon completion of the program, students will receive a Banker's Academy Elder Financial Abuse for Credit Unions Certification (BAEFACUC) to help advance their career in today's banking industry.
