The agency's accreditation is important to all citizens of Wisconsin. The designation of the Wisconsin agency is a milestone for the program.

Accreditation speaks highly of the Wisconsin agency.
Accreditation is important to all residents of Wisconsin because it shows that their state credit unions are being regulated effectively. Our agency benefits from completion of the self-examination process, which obligates us to analyze our agency funding, training and personnel as well as its examination and supervision capabilities and legislative powers. Peer review has proved an invaluable tool for elevating professional standards in a broad range of fields.
