Louisiana Tech University School of Banking

The Louisiana Tech University School of Banking, presented by the College of Business in collaboration with the Louisiana Bankers Association, aims to expand the skills and knowledge base of rising bank leaders, regulators, and vendors. With a strategic focus on fintech, innovation, regional economic development, technology in banking services, and information security, this school is ideal for those with three or more years of industry experience.

Discussions led by Louisiana Tech University faculty members, top banking executives, regulators, and select services providers will cover a variety of topics, including operations, risk management, liquidity, marketing and sales, and regulation. On-campus bank executive simulations and off-campus in-depth case studies will compliment engaging classroom discussions. Additionally, on- and off-campus networking and mentoring will take place throughout the two-year cohort.

The Louisiana Tech University School of Banking is a non-credit bearing professional development program. Students receive a certificate of graduation upon completion.
