CUNA Councils is dedicated to providing a safe, confidential, sales-pitch-free environment for credit union industry professionals. Membership eligibility requirements are in place to help us maintain these standards.
To become a CUNA Councils member, an individual must be on staff at a CUNA-affiliated natural person credit union, credit union league or organization affiliated with WOCCU. An individual must remain in good standing with all membership dues to continue to qualify for membership. Exceptions may be made to the qualification, subject to Council management’s sole discretion.
CUNA is a trade association and CUNA Councils is a professional society. So CUNA membership is managed at a credit union level, while Councils membership is per individual. Eligible staff at CUNA-affiliated credit unions and organizations can join CUNA Councils as individuals.
A credit union’s CUNA membership is a prerequisite for joining CUNA Councils. If your credit union isn’t a member, this is your opportunity to lead the initiative for your credit union to join CUNA.
There’s no limit! Anyone at a CUNA-affiliate organization who meets the Council qualifications can join. CUNA Councils memberships are set up at an individual level, so each person can take the initiative.
