June 15th 2012: Field Trip to the Miami Branch of the Federal Reserve Bank





This has been a wonderful experience! The entire class has been actively engaged in learning about banking  throughout the two weeks of face to face classes.  The spirit of teamwork was evident in the banking scenarios they created and their blog comments. The communication and critical thinking skills  they mastered will serve them well in the future.  I'm looking forward to hearing about their first hand experiences working in different branches and departments of Ocean Bank. Stay in touch!
