NAFCU Certified Volunteer Expert (NCVE) Program

Show you firmly grasp the role of a credit union volunteer leader

Open to all credit union industry professionals.

NCVETake advantage of the opportunity to earn the powerful designation of NAFCU Certified Volunteer Expert (NCVE) to prove that you have a comprehensive understanding of your credit union volunteer role and how the credit union system works.

Often, both new and seasoned directors and supervisory committee members can find themselves working through issues without a firm understanding of the rules of the game... but not when you're an NCVE. Note: Active, unexpired designations and training earned in 2024 will be fully recognized by America’s Credit Unions.
