About

This school provides lenders with the guidance and training they need to excel in today’s competitive market. It delivers in-depth instruction in all facets of lending, with an emphasis on loan policy, financial analysis, loan structure, risk management and calling skills.

Two Fundamental Purposes 

  1. To help lenders understand the role that policy plays in effective loan decision-making
  2. To help lenders develop or refresh credit perspectives, skills and tools so they may return to their banks more capable and confident in their ability to effectively manage risk and generate new business

The Lending School is led by experienced teachers with extensive realworld and relevant banking experience. All speakers have served the Texas Bankers Association and the banking industry nationwide for many years.

The learning environment includes lecture and class discussion. Each session is highly conversational with Q&A being the order of the day. A regulatory panel will provide up-to-date perspectives and answer questions.
