Credit union boards use Aprio’s credit union management software to complete specific tasks before, during, and after board meetings.

Before the meeting

Aprio helps credit union board admins prep paperless board packages in minutes, instead of hours. For example, features such as agenda templates and one-click virtual meeting creation allow board admins to efficiently prepare and distribute digital board packages.

During the meeting

Get a more productive board during meetings with everything you need at your fingertips. If your board meeting is 100% virtual or hybrid, members can join the meeting directly from Aprio. As the meeting unfolds, board admins can record meeting minutes, track motions and action items, and assign an approver or a co-author within the board portal.

Board members can annotate board materials on the spot. Aprio makes it easy to mark up board documents and share notes with other board members or committees, even from your mobile device.

After the board meeting

Track attendance, prepare audit reports or generate expense reports with Aprio’s digital board activity audit trail. Aprio’s task manager can help your board stay on top of action items by assigning tasks to individual members so nothing falls through the cracks. Use the surveys and voting tools to facilitate decision-making in between meetings.
