Education

The Midwest Agricultural Banking School is designed to provide you with the practical aspects of agricultural credit & finance, farm management, marketing & related subjects. The development and implementation of this curriculum has involved literally hundreds of bankers and has resulted in a nationwide system of quality banker education.

The Midwest Agricultural Banking School will hold its 51st annual session on November 27 – 30, 2023. The School is co-sponsored by the Indiana, Illinois, Kentucky, Ohio & Michigan bankers associations and the Department of Agricultural Economics at Purdue. This school is designed to further enhance the education of bankers in the field of agricultural finance. As one of the 68 land-grant colleges and universities created through the Morrill Act of 1862, Purdue has acquired a reputation as one of America’s leading universities. Agriculture was one of two divisions originally established at Purdue in 1869, and since that time, Purdue has grown to become a recognized leader in all areas of agricultural education. Classroom work features practical aspects of agricultural credit and finance, farm management, marketing, and case studies.
