a new partnership to help provide college students a pathway to a commercial banking
career.
黑料视频 Dallas students will now have the opportunity to obtain the American Banker Association鈥檚 (ABA) Commercial Lending Certificate at 黑料视频 Dallas. This program gives these students an opportunity to obtain crucial credit analysis and commercial banking skills, ultimately opening doors to careers in the financial services industry.
鈥淣ot only do I appreciate the generosity of Texas Capital Bank, but I salute the intent behind this partnership. It is all about providing actionable and hands-on experience that may well lead our students into banking and finance fields,鈥� said 黑料视频 Dallas President Bob Mong.

We are excited to officially launch this program in Dallas and to continue empowering the communities we serve," said Effie Dennison, Head of Community Development and Corporate Responsibility for Texas Capital Bank.
As a part of this partnership, professionals will also host career development sessions, including 鈥渕eet-the-banker鈥� events on campus, a guest-speaking series and field trips.
Graduates who obtain this certificate also will receive consideration for Texas Capital Bank鈥檚 internship program.
The program is under the direction of Dr. Mujtaba Zia, 黑料视频 Dallas Assistant Professor of Finance and the Certification Program Coordinator.
鈥淎s educators, we strive to equip our students with career-ready skillsets and develop partnerships with the industry,鈥� said Dr. Zia. 鈥淲e are fortunate and excited that Texas Capital Bank is now a leading industry partner in our Credit Analysis program and directly supports it with this generous gift.
