Comptroller of the Currency Hosts Community Bank Directors Workshops in Omaha, Nebraska

WASHINGTON — The Office of the Comptroller of the Currency will host workshops for national community bank directors in Omaha, Nebraska, at the Embassy Suites, September 1-3, 2009.

The workshops provide practical information that expands bank directors' skills and understanding of issues facing their banks. The workshops cover compliance risk ("Compliance Risk: What Directors Need to Know"), risk assessment ("Directors: Where is the Risk in Your Bank?"), and credit risk ("Credit risk: A Director's Focus").

Workshops will be held on consecutive days and cost $65 each. Individuals may register for one or both of the workshops. Attendees receive pre-course reading and course materials, an OCC telephone seminar CD, a community bank supervision handbook, other supervisory material, a continental breakfast, and lunch. Workshops are limited to the first 50 registrants and are geared primarily to outside directors of national community banks with assets of less than $1 billion. Management directors may also find the workshops beneficial.
