The CU Village.com Speaker System is a free service that’s designed to help credit unions and leagues find experienced speakers for their events.

Select a speaker that matches the make-up of your audience. Speakers are categorized by:

• Board Members/Volunteers
• Business Development
• CEO/Management
• Finance
• Front Line Staff
• Government Relations
• Human Resources/Supervisors
• Lending
• Marketing
• Operations Staff
• Regulatory & Compliance
• Security
• Technology
• Trainers

Speakers are also grouped by those who cover economic issues and those who are motivational speakers. Finally, you can search for a speaker by price range.

If you’d like to, you can open an account, which will allow you to save speakers you like to "your filing cabinet" for later reference and review speakers whom you have used for your peers.

And you can keep the list of speakers fresh — and help your peers find new speakers — by requesting that a speaker be added to the speaker system.
