The Cooperative Trust provides opportunities for rising credit union talent—specifically, young and emerging professionals.
Members of the Trust join and contribute to building a strong network of continuous and collaborative learners, create and curate professional and community development content and experiences, and develop strong loyalty and activism within the credit union industry.
Active members of the community develop both personally and professionally—learning, discussing, and practicing an array of topics related to:
| Leadership | Credit Union Business Models | Diversity, Equity + Inclusion |
| Innovation + Incubation | Data Analytics | Consumer Life Events |
| Community Development | Talent Recruitment + Engagement |
Crash with Filene!
The Cooperative Trust’s Crash program amplifies loyalty to credit unions. Crashing brings young and emerging leaders to credit union conferences – now virtually. Each Crash creates its own support network, and at times, this network cross-pollinates with other Crash groups, Filene communities, and other credit union young professional and professional development groups.
Enroll in Filene's Centers of Excellence Crash program in 2021!
We’re thrilled to introduce a new Crash experience, Crash Filene’s Centers of Excellence!
