Advance Savings staff training to serve you better.

Advance Savings staff training to serve you better.
 

Christina Fayle and Arlene Steeves

 

Advance Savings staff members, Christina Fayle (Riverview) and Arlene Steeves (Salisbury), recently received their Member Service Representative Accreditation through CUSource. This unique accreditation is a nationally recognized designation and involves a very intensive program that covers all aspects of the Credit Union, and in particular the Member Service Representative’s position.

Additionally they both took the Supervisor’s Orientation to this program and are fully trained and prepared to coach Advance Savings’ Customer Service Representatives through this process. Beginning in the fall of 2008, Advance Saving's goal is to have all Customer Service Representatives working toward obtaining this accreditation.

It’s just another way we’re working to serve you better!

Congratulations Christina and Arlene!

Meet the Advance Savings Credit Union staff.

Meet Christa Sceles. After attending Saint Mary’s University, Christa spent nine years working in loans and mortgages at other financial institutions. In May 2008, she joined the Advance Savings staff as the branch manager in Riverview.

With a successful financial career already behind her, Christa’s desire in her new role at Advance Savings is to help the Riverview branch take the next step in growth and to exceed their branch goals for year end. "But more importantly," says Christa, "I want to personally meet every owner that walks through the door and ensure they feel comfortable to come to me for all their financial needs."

Christa, her husband Dave, and their nine year old son, Devin, live in Moncton. In her spare time she is very involved in her son’s extra-curricular activities, including volunteering as manager for his fall and spring hockey teams. As a family, they enjoy walking and biking on the trails in Mapleton Park.

Advance Savings community involvement.
Who are you riding with?

Advance Savings, along with other Moncton Credit Unions, recently joined together to support the Typically Canadian Group; a team of inspirational young men who biked across Canada in order to pay tribute to people who have battled or are currently battling cancer. Representatives from the three Credit Unions presented the team with a cheque for $750. All proceeds went directly to the Canadian Cancer Society.
