Don’t Miss These Complimentary Orientations

CFC, NRECA, NRTC and Federated Rural Electric Insurance Exchange are gearing up to host orientation sessions in coming months for new electric cooperative chief executive officers, chief financial officers, directors/trustees and communicators as follows:

New Director Orientation:
March 17–19

Recently elected directors/trustees explore critical issues affecting the energy industry, gain valuable information about cooperative governance concerns and learn about resources available through their national organizations—all while building an invaluable peer network of fellow electric cooperative directors.

New CEO Orientation:
March 31–April 3

Designed for CEOs and general managers with less than two years of experience in their new role, the course provides an in-depth overview of key electric utility and cooperative management issues and challenges, along with forging connections with new colleagues from around the country.

New CFO Orientation:
May 5–8

New CFOs or those holding the senior finance role at their system enjoy interactive sessions that help them discover national programs and services available to help CFOs address finance, regulatory and accounting issues affecting their jobs and the electric cooperative network.

New Co-op Communicators Orientations:
March 17–20 or October 5–9

Recently hired cooperative communications, marketing, digital and member services staff come away with a better handle on how the electric cooperative network fits together as well as tips for crisis communications and reputation management, telling the co-op story, financial issues and resources, networking tools and Touchstone Energy initiatives.

All orientations will be held in Northern Virginia at both CFC and NRECA headquarters. Tentative agendas can be found online at Cooperative.com.
