Financial education is one of those credit union strategies that is assumed to be taking place, but the details behind the strategy aren’t often shared in great detail. This is where Oscar Cordoba comes in.

As the Financial Education and External Affairs Manager at the Basking Ridge, N.J.-based Affinity Federal Credit Union, Cordoba is thinking about financial education in big ways that are transforming the lives of so many of its members.

Financial education plays a “critical role," according to Cordoba, in shaping how Affinity FCU works in the communities it serves. “Members are more likely to improve their credit scores,” he said, and the credit union believes the work Cordoba and his team are doing is setting up thousands of people to live financially successful lives.

In this episode, we walk through Cordoba’s strategies, the technology used to achieve those strategic goals, and how he’s become somewhat of a local celebrity around New Jersey because he conducts hundreds of classes each year. The work he is doing is truly incredible.
