Minor members are the future of the credit union.  However, it is sometimes difficult to know what can and can’t be done for underage members.  It is unsettling when minors have authority to transact business because, in many states, minors are not held responsible for their actions on deposit contracts.  Join us to learn how to answer your adult members’ questions on opening accounts for kids, grandchildren, college, and other minor accounts.  This program will review the basic legal ownerships you can offer for minor members and how to transition them into adult accounts and memberships.  The dos and don’ts of account cards for minors will also be covered.

You will be challenged to look at old practices, understand how to handle checks, learn when to give access, and more from this information-packed program.  You won’t want to miss this A to Z training on minor accounts.
