CU Learn has also supported ILCU to fulfil its obligations with regard to new regulatory requirements by placing a renewed emphasis on the training and education of its members.

The Irish Institute of Training & Development (IITD) National Awards celebrates excellence in learning and development and CU Learn has been revealed as a finalist for the Networks and Group award which recognises the unique co-operation that is now taking place between organisations who are working together in networks and groups around the country to develop training solutions to meet the demands of their industry.  

Speaking about the announcement, Suzanne Ryan, Head of CU Learning & Development at ILCU, commented:

“CULearn.ie has been central in supporting our focus to facilitate the efficient administration of training and education amongst our network of affiliated credit unions, particularly at a time when there is a renewed emphasis on developmental support, tailored training and Continued Personal Development, in the credit union movement.

The system has already added value to ILCU and has proven good learner outcome. CU Learn is available for free to all credit unions and we encourage those not already registered to logon to www.culearn.ie (https://www.culearn.ie/ilcu/servlet/ekp/login?getnews=Y) and start reaping the benefits.”
