We are here for you. Albeit on a webcam.
If you have joined us in the past, then you already know that there is something special about PROCU. Our annual conference is a rare opportunity to step away from the day to day responsibilities of managing a program and seek perspective from industry leaders and peers about strategy, planning and growth in a credit union environment. The intimate setting of our conference allows for real sharing of ideas, amazing networking and industry discourse in a beautiful beachfront setting. While we will miss the sound of the crashing surf beside us this year, we can still support each other and the unique community we have built here at PROCU. We'll just be doing it virtually.
The ongoing uncertainty surrounding travel and gatherings led us, as a Board, to make the difficult decision to cancel our 2020 Annual Conference in Laguna Beach. While September still seems so far away, it does not seem prudent to continue down the path of planning a conference at this time.
That said, priorities in running Credit Union investment and insurance programs are not waiting for a return to "normal". In fact, they are keeping all of us busier than ever. In light of this, we will be standing up several virtual Roundtables to give you the opportunity to network and connect with your industry peers from across the country. Much like we have done at our in person Roundtable events, we will keep the group size limited to give you an opportunity to participate in discussions and we highly encourage you to turn on your webcam. Please join us at one of these sessions to hear how programs are adjusting to this new environment. Topics will include managing your team of Advisors virtually, compensation impacts from declining assets and working remotely, best practices around client communication, and utilizing technology and key resources to create strategies for program growth in the face of current challenges.
...And we have every intention of returning to the Surf and Sand in Laguna Beach for PROCU 2021. The dates are already set for the first week of October.
