ARLINGTON, Va. — The NAFCU Certified Compliance Officer program recently graduated its 500th student.

Actually, according to NAFCU Associate Director of Education Vanessa Butler, "As of January 1, we hit 501 since the inception of NCCO in 1996." There are currently 326 active NCCOs, she added. To become active, candidates must attend NAFCU's compliance school, which took place last week, and "successfully complete five exams."

"They're really hard," NAFCU Director of Compliance Anthony Demangone interjected. "I went to law school. I work at NAFCU and I failed two out of five and had to retake them." Demangone is now an NCCO and Butler is working on her certification.
