Pre-Program BankCEO

Many of you might not know, but SWGSB has recently completed a total revamp and upgrade to BankCEO. It is now completely online and we invite you to "Form Your Teams." As part of the alumni experience for 2014, you can complete either individually, or form a team to complete against the other alumni. The alumni registration fee includes this opportunity but you are not required to participate to be part of the alumni reunion program.

To participate, you must email your team, including all team members and their email address to: alumnibankceo@swgsb.org by April 18, 2014. The following schedule will apply:

  • Free use of the system to learn and test April 22-26 (midnight), 2014.
  • Competitive Decisions will be due: April 29, May 2, 6, 9, 13 and 16, 2012 at midnight.
  • The winner(s) of the competition will be registered for the alumni program for free!!
