MCCU Connect
Members Choice CU and ACTC started offering an opportunity for student internships for those looking to enter the business world after graduation in early 2018. Developed by both institutions, Members Choice CU/ACTC Mentorship program will be offered each semester to interested and qualified students.
While focusing specifically on the many jobs offered in area financial institutions, the program seeks to give participants a broad range of skills and experiences that will translate to any working environment. Soft skills such as workplace communication, professional writing, interview/resume workshops, and habits of effective employees will be covered, and students will have opportunities to pursue independent projects tailored to their professional interests.

Youth Education
Over 10 Kentucky schools are using Banzai, a free, online financial literacy program that teaches students about adult financial dilemmas. Students are experiencing adult financial dilemmas from the inside of their own classrooms for free since Members Choice CU partnered with Banzai.The goal at Banzai is to educate and inspire students to take their future into their own hands by developing positive financial habits. Banzai incorporates real-life scenarios such as paying rent, auto insurance, overdraft fees, saving for unexpected accidents, college, and more. Students navigate through the course and make realistic financial decisions. Similar to real life, the students are either rewarded or have repercussions based on those decisions.
