Compliance School (Virtual) – Co-Sponsored by Virginia Bankers Association & North Carolina Bankers Association

Compliance School consists of two tracks, Lending and Deposits, and is designed for entry-mid level compliance personnel.

In 2022, the VBA and NCBA will join together to host the virtual school with a three day Lending track and a one day Deposits track.
