The approximately 300 credit unions running on the FLEX core processing system are now being offered free live webinars through a new system that provides self-enrollment and unlimited attendance.

The GoToWebinar solution is being used to offer multiple topics each month, according to the platform's provider, Computer Marketing Corp. of Sandy, Utah.

Topics are determined in response to client needs and range from basic training to marketing support to accounting and lending regulations, said Kristy Ellis, ongoing training manager and webinar host for FLEX.

Ellis said she and her team of four trainers also offer one-on-one training and that the webinar program saves significant travel dollars while helping its customers cut costs and use their systems more efficiently.

“Although FLEX engineers work continually to make our core processing system end-user friendly, we find that ongoing training is critical for our credit unions to stay current and up to date on our fully integrated system and on industry regulations,” Ellis said.

The FLEX platform is now in use at nearly 300 credit unions across the United States and the Eastern Caribbean, the company said.
