About Us

The Conference Group, LLC is a Credit Union Service Organization delivering high-quality learning experiences in unique and inspiring worldwide locations.

Our inaugural year included programs in some of the world’s most inspiring venues, delivered by leading strategic educators. Looking ahead, this year's program leaders will include well known credit union professional Patrick Adams and Lou Centini of the Darden School of Business.

This year, our quest for unique and inspiring program venues will take us from Bora Bora in the South Pacific to northern Europe and Russia. To further ensure that participants are provided an experience of the highest quality, The Conference Group, LLC has engaged renowned credit union cruise professionals Kelly Cruises, Inc to act as our official booking agent for cruises and conferences.

We are most excited to unveil the two newest divisions of The Conference Group, LLC - the CU Philanthropy Group and the CU Development Group.

Our philanthropic program team, the CU Philanthropy Group visits your site to deliver highly motivational, one-of-a-kind events!  Your leadership team, staff and volunteers will participate in pay-it-forward philanthropic exercises while engaging in powerful professional development programs.  Visit our site for information!

In addition, our long-awaited next phase of programming has begun with the introduction of the CU Development Group - a division built especially for budget conscious clients, delivering dynamic programs in regional venues at affordable rates. This is the perfect time to select regional venues!

We are honored that you are considering us for your next professional development experience. The Conference Group sincerely looks forward to hosting you on a learning journey that visits some of the most romantic and exciting locations on the planet.
