A few spots still remain for the National School for Experienced Ag Bankers June 25-29 in Spearfish. 

Sponsored by the SDBA, the school targets ag bankers with a strong knowledge of financial analysis in ag banking who desire further training analyzing and troubleshooting more complex and problem credits. Three to five years of banking experience is recommended. The school is also beneficial for ag loan officers, credit analysts, credit reviewers, regulators and FSA loan officers. 

School instructors will provide course material primarily by case study and supported by lectures and intensive analysis. Students will be taken through a "live" case study and other rapid fire case studies. Instructors will provide valuable information and additional analytical tools that will inspire action as attendees learn to apply the techniques in more complex loans. 

Students will learn about commodity grain marketing fundamentals through participation in a simulation game. Lender liability issues, grassroots efforts and the bank regulator's roll will round out the training. Attendees will achieve higher skills that will help with early identification of problem loans and determining solution options. 

The remaining seats for this year's school will fill quickly, so apply now. Learn more and register.
