Information Technology Security and Compliance
Learn and Remain Up-to-Date on ISO Responsibilities
A regular attendee of our Lunch & Learn sessions Karen McKinley at Security Bank of Whitesboro, Whitesboro, Texas says, "I was pleasantly surprised by how much I learned. The information was pertinent, understandable and usable, which is very different from some webinars and seminars I have attended. I think more people should be attending and getting the benefits from the Lunch and Learn presentations!" |
The Lunch and Learn program is held once every quarter in Houston and San Antonio. Our Webinars are hosted on most months of the year. |
The Webinars and Lunch and Learn sessions are offered at no charge to bankers. A complimentary lunch is served during the Lunch and Learn program that starts promptly at 11.30am and ends at 1.00pm. Our attendees take the opportunity to remain after this time and visit with one another and have any remaining questions answered. For additional information and registration of our Lunch and Learn sessions and Webinars, please contact: Kyllie Watts or 713-266-8785 ext. 306. |
