Getting to Brazil
The journey itself was an adventure for these young professionals.
They visited multiple airports and spent numerous hours on many airplanes, but they’ve landed in Brazil.
A delegation of 14 credit union representatives will spend this week in Brazil as part of the World Council of Credit Unions Young Professional Exchange. It’s an opportunity for the delegates to share information and learn from others in the credit union movement.
Kristin Ryan, CUNA’s director of learning events and lead for the CUNA Young Professionals Committee, and Blair Wolston, part of the financial services team at $778 million asset VSECU in Montpelier, Vt., and the president of the Credit Union Young Professionals of Vermont, are involved with the exchange. They’re providing CUNA News with daily updates about their experience.
Hear from Kristin and Blair about their travel to the Southern Hemisphere.
