Small Credit Union Symposium

Date: October 21, 2025
Time: 9:30 am ET (8:30 a.m. CT)
Where: Contact Your League


TR Group is hosting a virtual meeting in follow up to the Small CU Symposium held earlier this year. Though tailored specifically for credit unions with assets of $100 million or less, we invite all credit unions to join us as we discuss innovations and challenges in the growing asset class of credit unions, a session diving deeper into succession planning, and a session on CDFI and grant writing.

The webinar is scheduled on October 21, 2025 at 9:30 am ET (8:30 am CT). Detailed timing will be shared closer to date for those who want to participate in specific sessions. This is a dues-supported virtual meeting; there is no cost to attend.

Speakers

Eileen Burden, a Louisville native and University of Louisville graduate, began her credit union career 21 years ago—just weeks after high school—without knowing she was stepping into a lifelong passion. Over the years, she’s served in roles ranging from Teller to Training Specialist, and even spent time at the League developing workshops and inspiring credit union teams.

After a brief break in 2020 to welcome her second child, she returned to the movement and, in 2024, rejoined Kentucky’s Credit Unions. Recently promoted to Vice President of Support, Eileen now uses her deep operational experience to guide and empower credit unions statewide. Her goal: to support Kentucky’s credit unions in delivering exceptional service and creating lasting impact.

She lives in Louisville with her husband, Tyler, and their two children, Lyla and Eli—who love tagging along for the occasional credit union sucker, just like Mom did years ago.
