Our online training catalog continues to expand as we break down those long and tough regulatory compliance courses into bite-sized sections. This month we tackled the Flood Disaster Protection Act.

Here are the courses–details can be found in the full course catalog

Premium Plan Subscribers: The new courses are not automatically placed into your catalog of courses. You can modify catalog names, add, or remove catalogs, and fully control which courses are displayed within each catalog. Many of the Premium Plan clients have customized the catalogs based on their needs.
Because of this ability to customize, when new courses are added to the LMS, they are not automatically added into a catalog. This function is left to the LMS administrator to place the course in the specific catalog based on their bank's needs. To help with this process, we have included instructions on adding a course into a catalog of your choice. If you have any questions, reach out to Vubiz for technical assistance.
In early February, the Harassment Prevention training courses will be updated.
Four new Fair Lending courses will be launched early to mid-February:
Fair Lending: Frontline
Fair Lending: Marketing
Fair Lending: Risk Management
Fair Lending: Types of Discrimination
Did you know that the reports for the Bank Director Program Online Training are separate from the Full Access Online Training Plans and Bundles? If you subscribe to both the Bank Director Program and one of our full access plans/bundles you must pull two different reports.
Go to the Administration tab and run one of the applicable reports that begin with BDOT and the Activity Report for All Courses Excluding BDOT. You maybe download each report into Excel and then combine them for one complete report to present to the examiners.
