About the Workshop
The effective date of the Current Expected Credit Loss (CECL) model is getting closer. It’s time to get out of the stands and get on the field. To be successful when CECL goes into effect, you need to start practicing now.

This half-day CECL workshop will provide in-depth discussion of how to prepare for your bank’s CECL implementation. Time for high level discussion is over. It’s time to get into the details of preparing for implementation.

In this session, attendees will:

· Understand the major milestones of the CECL readiness and implementation process

· Develop a preliminary CECL implementation timeline for their banks

· Identify the personnel at the bank who need to be involved with CECL implementation

· Develop an understanding of how CECL may change how banks identify pooling based on common risk characteristics

· Learn about the different types of models most likely to be used by community banks including:

      ° Pros and cons of models

      ° Potential data needs of specific models
