Nominations are currently being sought for the CUNA Technology Council’s Best Practices awards, which recognize outstanding approaches to technology challenges with potential for universal application across the credit union movement.

A panel of judges will choose award winners from CUNA-affiliated credit unions, without regard to asset size, based on strategy, process, application, and results in the following categories:

• Technology Infrastructure – looks at the technical and procedural environment for safely accessing infrastructure, how the system monitors this access, and its current and future storage management capabilities.
• Information Security/Privacy – examines the technical and procedural environment to minimize the possibility of internal and external unauthorized access to member information.
• Member Service/Convenience – emphasizing the benefits to members and employees, this award covers the technical environment and system integration technologies that allow members to open accounts or receive information on existing accounts across all delivery channels.
• Sales Management/Marketing Automation – recognizes the use of innovative automated systems to manage member information, create personalized product offers, plan and track sales leads, measure return on investment, etc.
• Miscellaneous – for any technology success story that does not fit the other categories.

Award winners will be recognized at the 14th annual CUNA Technology Council Summit, held Aug. 5-8 in San Francisco.
