Bank Club Membership Benefits

Heritage Clubs International (HCI) membership has many benefits for your club – and HeritageClubs.com is just the beginning! All resources are available to members to help you succeed and be the best in the industry. Our non-competitive premise allows for extensive networking and time-saving idea-sharing throughout the year. Along with reputable travel partners and a full-time staff ready to work with you and serve your needs, being a Heritage Clubs member definitely has its privileges.

• Peer Group Conference: Our annual 4-day educational conference brings Bank Club Directors and Travel Industry partners together to learn from and network with each other. Held in a new destination each year, what also makes this conference unique year after year is that it is focused on banking education, peer networking and travel planning. A PreFAM tour is offered each year for bank club directors.  

• Education: In addition to the annual Peer Group Conference, Heritage Clubs members have come to expect the highest quality educational opportunities:
  • Fall Forum Training: This one-day seminar, held yearly in early November, focuses on one specific banking or travel topic with direct impact on the successful management and planning of a bank travel club. 
  • HCI's Certified Bank Club Director (CBCD) program recognizes members for their learning achievements and industry expertise in the industry. As a member of Heritage Clubs, you too can achieve the CBCD recognition.
  • Best Practice Tools: The tools created EXCLUSIVELY FOR HCI MEMBER USE have been the result of our Task Force committees' efforts or a Fall Forum seminar.  Through discussions at Peer Group and annual surveys, we identify the most pressing concerns of our club directors and assign Task Forces who spend 6 months each year developing solutions to these problems and prepare these resources to share with our members.  Access to these tools requires you to login as an HCI Member.

• Networking Opportunities:
  • Open Mic is a live forum for club directors to exchange ideas and discuss banking and travel related topics with one another.
