Program Goals
Branson Bank has made it a priority to invest in area students who have an interest in a future banking career. As a local, community bank, we have the unique ability to provide training in multiple bank departments. Our hopes are that, through this internship, students will be better prepared to seek specific careers within the banking industry upon entry into the workforce.
Learning Objectives
Branson Bank interns will experience day-to-day banking operations and see what functions multiple departments perform, given the opportunity to participate in each. The main objective of this training is to provide the intern with a broad overview of this community banking model, how a bank services the community via financial product and service offerings, and experience all the departments a community bank requires to operate.
Training Structure
Branson Bank will provide training for 15 weeks (a college semester) offering a minimum of 180 hours of experience within the following departments: Human Resources, Retail Teller Line, Retail New Accounts, Retail Operations, Loan Officer / Assistant, Loan Portfolio Management, Loan Operations, Bank Management, Compliance / Security, Information Technology, and Marketing.
