Bio
Tim McAlpine lives in Chilliwack, British Columbia, Canada. He is the Founder and CEO of Currency Marketing and is best known for developing the It's a Money Thing Financial Education Program that credit unions from around North America are using to connect with new young adult members. He is also a driving force behind CUES Emerge, an emerging leader program that combines online learning, peer collaboration and an exciting competition component. Tim believes that credit unions and the credit union movement need to work harder to prove that there is a difference and that it matters.
I'm passionate about
Credit unions, consumer finance, technology, sustainability, free speech and the future.
An idea worth spreading
I truly believe that all young adults need to be financially literate and be able to make smart financial decisions.
The TED story
I spoke at the inaugural TEDxChilliwack event and had such a great experience that I stepped up to help keep this great event going in our community.
