Online Training Newsletter - June 2022

Introduction

It’s almost renewal time for Standard Plan, Custom Plan, and Bank Compliance Bundle subscribers. Renewal invoices for the next subscription year will be delivered via email the week of July 19 to the individual at the bank who purchased the online training subscription. Please check your spam or quarantine site as the invoice may be trapped there.

The email will recap this year’s curriculum changes and improvements and offer a snapshot of exciting enhancements to come. You will also find a link to access your renewal invoice. You can forward the email to your accounts payable department, and they will be able to access invoice. Be sure to renew your subscription as soon as possible to avoid disruptions in service.

Did You Know?

Did you know that a person’s ICBA account remains “active” indefinitely and can even travel with them throughout their career? This means that if a bank employee already possesses an ICBA account, you do not need to create a new account for the employee to appear in your Online Training Center list. Instances this can occur are when:

  1. The employee has worked for another bank that subscribed to ICBA’s Online Training.
  2. A former employee is rehired.

These might sound like rare occurrences, but they do happen! Checking to see if there is a duplicate record is easy.

  1. Refer to page 8 of your Admin Guide and go through the steps to create a new account.
  2. After you have entered the information, click Save. If there is a potential duplicate record (example below) the suspected duplicate will appear.
  3. Review the names, find the correct one, and click “Edit this Individual”. Review and update the individual’s information and click Save again.
