First and Only School of 2023

November 7-8, 2023 

I am happy to announce that I will be hosting ONE school in November courtesy of CO-OP Financial Services. They have graciously offered the use of their Fort Worth, Texas facility.

This session is long overdue.

I appreciate all of those that have contacted me to be notified for the 2023 schedule and the ongoing support. So this is it- one school- with capacity of accepting 20 registrations.

I've been keeping a low profile in 2023 due to a myriad of personal challenges and circumstances which I will share with those in attendance. 

Will there be more sessions in 2024? I hope so, but for now, one is all I can handle.

Value of The School of Credit Card Program Management:

Since 2008, The School of Credit Card Program Management (SCCPM), has taught all levels of employees; from Board Members to CEOs to Card Program Managers and employees of all levels from lending, operations and finance. Ondine teaches how to manage and run a truly profitable and successful program:

• Increase income and reduce expenses
• Improve operational efficiencies
• Implementing marketing tactics based on analytics
• Understanding and measuring the true meaningful card metrics

SCCPM shows credits unions how a credit card program can be successful without gouging members with unneccesary fees and high interest rates. Our schools will show a credit union how to identify cost savings to pass along to the members while actually reducing many cardholder fees.In order to become profitable, credit unions must have a well-managed program.
