GREENVILLE, S.C. — More than 340 bank officers from throughout the United States and abroad will be on the Furman University campus July 20-30 to attend the Graduate School of Retail Bank Management (GSRBM).

      The GSRBM is sponsored by the Consumers Bankers Association (CBA) and Bank Administration Institute (BAI).

      The graduate school provides high quality education that integrates coursework with real world studies. The participants will attend classes on the Furman campus and stay in the North Village apartments during their 10-day stay.

      This is the first time the graduate school will be held at Furman.  It has been held on the University of Virginia campus for the past 56 years.

      The Graduate School of Retail Bank Management is a three-summer executive education program for bank officers.  In a fast-paced, 10-day resident session each summer, students work in teams to analyze the major functional areas of banking and how they interact.

      For more information, visit the The Graduate School of Retail Bank Management website or contact Marie Burgess, Furman’s director of Camps and Conferences, at 864-294-3144.
