CCUA’s Lead365 provides the next generation of credit union leadership with in-demand skills  

Published Date: Sep 17, 2026

What does the future of your credit union leadership look like? Is your organizational culture shifting as a result of a merger or consolidation?   

In the ever-evolving financial sector, innovative credit union leadership training and education are of the utmost importance. Consider this: 

  • The shift from job titles to skills is accelerating. Organizations now prioritize whether people can do the work rather than what their last job title was, as job titles often fail to reflect a person’s full capabilities.  
  • Skills are flexible and transferable. They can be combined and reapplied across roles, industries, and career stages, making them valuable building blocks for ongoing professional growth.   
  • Demonstrated skills matter. To stand out, individuals must demonstrate skills through real projects, outcomes, skill benchmarks, and applied learning, not generic résumé buzzwords.  

To keep learners and leaders' skills sharp and meet the demands of the sector, CCUA Education presents the Lead365 Leadership Development Portal. 

Canadian credit unions can subscribe to the portal for $4,495 per year and enroll up to 15 learners. The portal is designed to develop emerging leaders through offerings such as: 

  • Live sessions with leadership experts 
  • Online discussion forums 
  • On-Demand leadership skill assessments 
  • And more! 

FREE TRIAL: CCUA Education is happy to offer a 1–2-person free trial of the portal for the remainder of the year, so your credit union can take a test drive before making any decisions. Contact clientsolutions@ccua.com to start discussions! 

The results are in, the value is clear. When asked about the impact of Lead365, one participant had this to say: 

Some things I enjoy about the portal have been hearing from the leadership experts. It’s always nice to hear confirmation on what I'm doing right and where I can grow my skills as a leader.  The benchmarking with Skillsoft Percipio also gives you a clear starting point with a pre-assessment to test what you know (or think you know!) and recommends targeted eLearning courses and videos that will help you improve your skills. It's basically a customized learning plan tailor-made for you! - Lendon Green, Fusion Credit Union
