SPOTLIGHT ON SUCCESS
In Her Own Words:
Michelle Desautels
Peoples Trust Company
I started my banking career at Peoples Trust Company
in September of 2001 as a teller. I had no previous
banking experience. I am now a Senior Customer
Service Representative/Consumer Lender. I started
taking CFT classes in 2002 and in 2005 I received a
Supervisor Certificate and in June of 2012, I received the
Bank Operations Diploma.
CFT classes have helped me gain confidence and build
a strong foundation that has helped me in my current
position as a Branch Manager and will in any future
positions I may hold. I am looking forward to taking more
classes.
Although life is busy and in person classes may be hard to
fit in, CFT offers online classes and assisted self study classes that allow you to work at your own
pace. The instructors are always friendly and helpful.
Peoples Trust Company has been very supportive and has played a big part in making this possible
for me.
I would recommend taking CFT classes to anyone. The knowledge gained is rewarding and worth the
effort.
“CFT classes have helped me gain confidence and build a
strong foundation that has helped me in my current position as
Branch Manager and will in any future positions I may hold.”

SPOTLIGHT ON SUCCESS
In Her Own Words:
Jodi Browning
Kennebunk Savings Bank
I started my banking career when I was completing my Master’s Degree
in Guidance Counseling at Northeastern. At the time, I worked for a large
corporate bank as a part time teller. Unfortunately, the office I was working
at closed and a friend of mine recommended Kennebunk Savings and I
have been working there ever since.
I just celebrated my five year anniversary with Kennebunk Savings. I
started as a Customer Service Assistant and quickly moved to a Sales
and Service Representative, then an Assistant Branch Manager and now
I am the Training Coordinator for the bank. I got involved with CFTEA
when I was recommended for our specialized CFTEA Master Teller
program, which included becoming a Certified Teller. Since completing
the Master Teller program in 2011 I have gone on to complete many
certificates. Just recently, I completed my Introduction to Lending
Certificate and my Supervisor Certificate. In the future I am looking to
complete the new Developing Leaders Certificate.
In addition to taking classes, I am also a CFTEA instructor and a CFTEA
Council Member. As a CFTEA instructor I have taught a wide array
of courses, including Teller Customer Relations, Time Management,
and Bank Security. One of my favorite courses to teach is Stress
Management, where I have the students make homemade stress balls
to take home with them. As a Council Member, I am involved in more of
what CFTEA does from a business standpoint. We have meetings about
once a quarter where we talk about enrollments, financials and are
involved in the future development of the company. We have the meetings
usually via conference call and it is a great way to talk to people from
different banks and organizations that have a common goal of promoting
financial education.
CFTEA has been very beneficial to me in my roles on the front lines and
in my new role as a trainer. I have taken many classes in which I have
collaborated with people from different departments or different banks to
gain a more well-rounded perspective. One of the classes that helped me immensely is when I took The Importance of Loan Operations
and there happened to be students who were working in lending support staff roles taking the course. It was nice to gain their prospective
from the servicing and underwriting side of lending. I felt like I became a better originator because I knew what they were looking for.
I am so thankful that I am a part of Kennebunk Savings and CFTEA because they are both organizations that take the time to encourage
their people to become more educated and grow. I would highly recommend any CFTEA course to anybody who is willing to learn more
about their job or banking as a whole.
“I am so thankful that I am a part of Kennebunk Savings and

SPOTLIGHT ON SUCCESS
I started my career in banking in May of 2009 at Claremont
Savings Bank. I had just finished my first year of college in the
field of Music Education, and I was looking to go in a new
direction. I was hired at Claremont Savings Bank as a Summer
Teller, and in the fall of that same year, I was hired as a full time
teller. From the moment that I became a full time teller, I was
encouraged by Claremont Savings Bank and my co-workers to
start taking classes through CFT.
In His Own Words:
Zachary Haines
Claremont Savings Bank
As I progressed through some of the CFT classes, I was
promoted to Pro-Teller, and, shortly after that, I was promoted to
Head Teller/Customer Service Representative. After almost a year,
I transferred to the Call Center as a Customer Care Specialist.
Shortly after transferring, I completed the Certified Teller Certificate,
but I didn’t want my education to end there. I completed the
Supervisor Certificate program, as well as finished the courses
needed for my General Banking and Bank Operations Diploma.
During that time, I became the Assistant Manager in Customer
Care. After becoming the Assistant Manager, I had the honor of
attending the Northern New England School of Banking in the
fall of 2013.
While taking the Supervisor Certificate program, my instructor,
Cynthia Stuart approached me with the idea of joining CFT as an
instructor. Because I have always had a passion for teaching, I was
immediately interested in helping to educate bankers through the
wonderful classes offered through CFT, and, with the support of
both Claremont Savings Bank and CFT, I became an instructor.
Taking classes through CFT opened my eyes to the world of
banking. I could immediately see the dedication of the banks that
allowed their employees to further their career and education
through the courses they offered. As a student, I understood that I
was given an amazing opportunity to learn and grow. CFT made my experience even better by offering many courses locally or
online at convenient times, while offering a high level of education, taught by those that have worked or continue to work in the field
of banking, giving students the chance to learn from real bankers with the most experience.
In the coming years, I look forward to teaching through CFT while progressing in my career at Claremont Savings Bank. I owe a
huge thank you to both Claremont Savings Bank for wonderful career opportunities as well as CFT for not only a great education,
but the opportunity for me to educate others.

CFTEA CERTIFICATES and DIPLOMAS
The Center for Financial Training offers certificate programs in several areas of banking, and, they are easy to earn!
CFT’s certificates require the completion of topics that are offered mostly as one and two-evening classes OR as self-paced online classes*.
It’s never been easier to earn a certificate in your chosen field of banking, or in personal development.
CFT’s diplomas are more comprehensive and include longer more detailed classes*, therefore take longer to achieve.
Whether your career path takes you toward a certificate or a diploma,
the education and training you achieve prepares you for success in the banking industry!
*Some classes are ONLY AVAILABLE in certain formats. Please check the worksheets for each diploma or certificate for the format availability of each class.

Why enroll into an CFT WEBCOURSE?





If a live class is preferred, our webcourses are LIVE!!! All students
and the class instructor will attend the class together with their
computer and telephone. They will discuss class topics together,
view material placed online by the instructor and have questions
answered directly and immediately by the instructor.
If being able to plan on attending a class at a specific time helps a
student to successfully complete the class, our webinars are
scheduled for specific days at a specific time. Students will be
expected to participate in each class.
Our instructors are bankers within our footprint and have been CFT
instructors teaching our classes in our live classrooms.
Attend your class for two hours once a week for a stated number of
weeks. Homework will be assigned and expected to be completed
prior to the next class session. Participate from any location with a
telephone and a computer with Internet access – office, home,

HAVE YOU TRIED A CFT LIVE WEBOURSE YET?
YOU JUST MIGHT LOVE THIS FORMAT!!!!
A CFT webcourse blends the convenience of attending a class online,
wherever you may be, with the value of being a part of a
live classroom. Use your telephone and computer to join the
classroom at a specific time on a specific day with a “live” instructor.
Prepare assignments that you will discuss in class and review
material your instructor places online that you will see on your
computer along with the rest of your class. Participate in discussions and
ask questions of your instructor during class. Finish the class in fewer
sessions earning the same credits as comparable in-person live classes.
