Press release from: Edcomm Banker’s Academy

Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently launched its Individual Retirement Account (IRA) training program for individuals.

New York, NY, March 25, 2011 -- Edcomm Banker’s Academy has recently launched its Individual Retirement Account (IRA) training program for individuals looking to begin or advance their career in the financial services industry. The same great program that has been used by thousands of banks, Introduction to IRAs, provides individuals with the knowledge, skills and certification needed to become a trusted source of expertise to customers and enable them to be confident when opening IRA accounts at the bank.

With a steadily aging population, growing concerns about the stability of Social Security and fewer companies offering pension plans, IRAs have become the retirement product of choice. Today’s financial market is extremely competitive with companies, banks, credit unions, etc., all offering IRAs to their customers. In order to meet this growing need, bank employees must be able to sell and service these highly profitable, but complex accounts.

Introduction to IRAs, from Edcomm Banker’s Academy, is an interactive, self-paced training program that teaches individuals everything they need to know about IRAs to help their customers understand the features and benefits of these accounts. Students will learn about basic product knowledge, as well as how to identify and sell prospects and understanding and communicate contribution and distribution requirements. Upon completion of Introduction to IRAs, students will receive a Banker's Academy IRAs Certification (BAIRAC) to help advance their career in today's financial industry.
