10th ANNUAL BANK DIRECTORS WORKSHOP
February 19-20, 2009: Airport Marriott - Orlando
Speakers: State & Federal Level Officials, Bankers, and Professional Consultants

Attention State Chartered De Novo Banks
This event has been approved for 12 hours toward the required 16 hours
of continuing education for directors of new state chartered banks
as mandated by the Florida Office of Financial Regulation.

You have a desire to help your institution become more profitable and increase its market share...but how? You know you have specific duties and responsibilities as a bank director, and there are complex compliance issues that affect you....but what are they? You know you need vital education to safeguard and improve yourself and your institution...but where can you get it?

This event will provide practical and pertinent topics for both old and new directors in an effort to help you better fulfill your duties and responsibilities.

As a Senior Executive of your bank, you know how important training is. With today's challenges, it's critically important, now more than ever, to know what the state and federal banking regulators are thinking about as you plan and execute your bank's plan for the year.

This workshop will bring together a group of state and federal level officials, as well as professional consultants, to present a list of topics that will not only be interesting, but useful in determining your institution’s strategy. In conjunction with many state and federal agencies, we are gathering together a team of speakers that are experts in their fields. This workshop will be well worth the time, money and effort to attend.

The 2009 Agenda has yet to be determined.

Who Should Attend
Those that should attend are CEOs, Presidents, all Board Members, especially those new to the board.
