Bank Employees Graduate From CT School Of Finance and Management

GROTON, CT – A number of Chelsea Groton Bank employees recently graduated from the Connecticut Bankers Association’s Connecticut School of Finance and Management (CSFM).

The graduates included:

• Colleen C. Kluberdanz of Pawcatuck, Risk Management and Compliance Specialist
• Carleen M. Lee of New London, Assistant Secretary, Branch Manager of the Bank’s New London branch
• Max A. Spelman of Pawcatuck, Assistant Vice President and Deposit Operations Manager

“Chelsea Groton believes in encouraging our employees to continually learn and grow. We’ve found that employees who are knowledgeable and trained feel more confident in their positions, and are able to provide exceptional service to customers,” Assistant Vice President and Training Manager Denise Stapienski said in a release. “The CSFM program has proved to be a comprehensive and valuable learning experience for all who have completed it. We are very proud of Colleen, Carleen and Max for their accomplishments.”

The primary purpose of CSFM is to provide an opportunity for key employees of Connecticut’s banking industry to obtain a more broad knowledge and awareness of banking theory, practices and procedures, capital markets and management functions which will be of substantial value in their preparation for new and greater responsibilities at or within the management level.

The two-year program is designed to increase the knowledge of students in their own specialties and at the same time introduce them to a wide range of banking topics.

The program helps students develop a broader perspective of the industry, a more enlightened view of their own bank and most importantly, a better awareness of their individual capacities.
