For 51 years, the Texas Tech School of Banking has successfully partnered with hundreds of community banks to bring together thousands of bankers seeking to advance their careers as current or future members of their management and leadership teams. The concentrated week-long programs, over two consecutive years, are delivered by seasoned experts in their fields and are specifically designed to provide a greater understanding of all aspects of community bank management today and in the future. Our goal is to help participants become better bankers and further develop their leadership skills.
Covering twenty-five topical sessions, the year one curriculum focuses on interactive lectures and team activities. Speakers and lecturers are practice-oriented as well as thought-provoking, helping bankers “take it back to the bank.” Additionally, every year-one participant is provided his or her bank’s financial information and learns where to find the numbers, how to interpret the numbers, and how to analyze their bank’s risks and financial performance compared to peers.
Through a nationally recognized bank management simulator, year two participants work in teams to build and manage a thriving virtual community bank. Participants apply tools learned in year one, plus advanced material and new topics covered in year two, to put knowledge into practice in a team competition. This extraordinary experience allows participants to manage a virtual bank and test multiple strategic decisions to explore how best outcomes are achieved in real banks. Year two is designed to help bankers see and manage all aspects of the bank, not just their silo . . . exactly what managers and executives say they depend on.
Throughout the challenging and collegial week, participants will enjoy the state-of-the-art Rawls College of Business building, as well as the beautiful Overton Hotel & Conference Center. Breakfast and lunch are provided daily, and evenings include social activities, cocktail receptions, and dinners. Knowing that an important part of the week is networking with other participants and invited executives, we provide refreshment breaks during the day.
We are proud of the Texas Tech School of Banking’s legacy of educating today’s and tomorrow’s community bank leaders. We encourage you to explore the school and see why thousands of bankers across 50 years have enhanced their careers by attending and graduating from the Texas Tech School of Banking!
