WTAMU Launching New Buff Smart Branch

West Texas A&M University and Education Credit Union have teamed up together to give students a redesigned workforce.

ECU will be converting their Canyon branch into a student led Buff Smart Branch.

The full-service retail branch will provide the same financial services to ECU members that all branches offer just with WT students.

Students will work in multiple operational areas, including marketing, accounting, compliance, business development and training.

The Education Credit Branch will move to 1900 Farm-to-Market Road 2590 with the Buff $mart Branch being located at 2100 4th Avenue in Canyon.

“We value our partnership with WT, which has helped equip countless students with the life skill of managing their finances for several years,” said Eric Jenkins, president and CEO of Education Credit Union. “With the reconfiguration of this branch, we will not only serve our members, but we also will provide WT students the opportunity to gain invaluable experience in the workplace.”
