Career Paths to Quality Banker Education

The Minnesota Bankers Association has worked with our committees to develop Career Paths for bankers who want to advance their careers and knowledge of banking. The Career Paths have been updated in March 2008 and are available for Personal Bankers, Tellers, Operation Management, Commercial and Retail Lenders.

These paths are not a prescribed curriculum or certificate program, but suggested offerings to assist in developing bank employees and contributing to a core knowledge base that will make your bank competitive and productive.
