November 14, 2007 - (NEW YORK, NY) – The Courier-Post quotes Dr. Linda Eagle, President of The Edcomm Group and Banker’s Academy, in the September 18 article “Watch for Financial Abuse of Seniors.”
Dr. Eagle was quoted on the importance of educating members of the banking community so that they are aware of the signs of elder financial abuse and can prevent it from occurring to their customers. “Seniors are often most vulnerable to scams and other financial crimes and look to their banks to protect their hard-earned assets,” said Eagle. “Financial institutions can send a message to these important customers by demonstrating that they are ready to combat elder financial abuse.”
Dr. Eagle is frequently invited to speak on a range of topics including distance learning, adult education, compliance training, teller training, ethics training, technological advances in training and education, and business solutions. Her educational background in psychology and communications and her experience in organizational consulting give her unique insight into the practical application of training and communication programs. Dr. Eagle has provided consulting and training services to hundreds of organizations in a variety of industries. Published in many national publications including USA Today, American Banker, Forbes, MSNBC and the Washington Post, Dr. Eagle has been widely quoted as an Associated Press (AP) expert and has appeared on several local and national radio and television news programs.
