International DE Resources
Thanks to the leadership of international credit union partners, there have been several DE Programs created outside of the U.S. These independently-managed programs offer extended learning opportunities for DE Program Alumni.
International CUDE Designation
The Credit Union Development Education (DE) program is designed to provide credit union employees and volunteers with a greater understanding of the international credit union system and opportunities for continued engagement.
The International CUDE Designation (I-CUDE) is available to DE Program Alumni who meet a certain level of international experience and is offered in partnership with the International DE Programs.
The deadline for 2021 I-CUDE applications is April 13, 2021. Please see the I-CUDE application for full details and contact your home DE Program Director for further details.
