EDUCATIONAL PREPARATION A GROWING REQUIREMENT FOR SUCCESS HDERN BUSINESS Death-Knell Sounded for Gueuwork and Slipshod Methods by Advancing Technical Proficiency in Finance, Trade and Industry How Banks Are Developing a Professionally Qualified Generation of Younger Bankers. By HAROLD STONIER American Bankart Association THE groat school of Experience in xtill holding clauses in America, but the scientific spirit of the age had so gener ally Invaded the workHhops of industry and trade that they have largely become technical research and mmbmmmm slipshod methods. ; HAWXO srONitH. As a result, educational preparation in the techniques of commerce, industry and finance are virtually essential to outstanding success in these fields, as it is already an absolute prerequisite in the various recognized professions. This is not to depreciate the value of Bin anility ana eioenence in aim am, but duration aftnr all ti merely a means for helping Ihe Individual to apply the net food of the accumulated esperlcnce of many to hla own day's work a means for helping special nstlve ability to euros Into In own mora rapidly and surely and for en abling all class of ability to tain tha mailmum of success to which they art entitled. These facta art plainly recognised by prartlral, work s day business In evsry Una. Every progressive busl nxi orfanltatlon In America la em phaitilni tha Importance of aduratlon aa never before. Education haa coma to ba looked upon aa tha anewer to many of tha problems within tha or ganlullon aa wall aa to problems at ftctluf Induatry aa a who la.

Thla la conrlu tve evidence that no one ran afford to undertake eiecullva builneaa re ponnlbllltlea without adequate educa tion and training. It la for that reaaon that every enlightened business organ Itatlon la today Insisting aa never be fore that Ha employed take advan tage of some type of techulral train ing.

People In banka In large numbers are taking advantage of the educational opportu nity given by the great non commercial college of Ihe banking business, the American Inatllute of Banking. Tboy aea on every hand evidence! of the value of the trulnlr-T It gives. Of Ihe 10,0110 graduates of 1'ila Institute. 70 now occupy olTtclel p fit Ions In Amur lean banka. The oilier Su are still too ynuug to tin 'o attained such heights. Here la ri example and an encouragement to the people of all lines of buslnosa. The American Institute of Banking haa a membership of 61S50. Of these SS.851 ara class enrolments, compris ing younger bank people, bo 111 men and women, who are learning the sci entific technique of their chosen busi ness at the lime time they are en gaged In the practical work ot earning their livings at It The difference be tween the SIMM enrolled In classes and the (4,120 total membership com prises older bnnkers who have taken the Institute courses In the past or ara at the present time sponsoring some type ot educational work In 'he organisation. Banking Educates Its Psople It has been estimated that there are probably 375,000 bank officers and em ployees In the United Suites at the present time. These figures would mean that about one banker In every all Is either enrolled In Institute classes In banking or Is actively sup porting some educational function of the organisation. No statement could possibly give ninre emphasis lo the Importance pinned on education by the hanking Interests of America than these facts. Tills Ajnurksji luatlu.H, of Banking training laboratories in themselves and arc no longer run on the old-fashioned cut-and-try methods of former generations when Ex- fiericnce was considered the only teacher, t would be hnrd to find a wr: force in any pre-eminently successf I busint : or in dustrial organization in the United States today but whitt the dominating Ir-ul rship is schooled in the scientifi: principles of its specific field, whether mar.ufartui'ir., nr-"-cnandising or finance. The :.. !;!!y advanc ing standards of business in this country, with their relentless demands for efUciency as the r:ily hope for survival in t! e competi tive strup."le for ci-onnriic exislcnc:, l.r.s sounded the death-knell for guesswork and la the eduratlonal aectlon of the Amur lean Bunkers Association. It was formed twenty-eight years ago by bunk employees and officers and has been carried on ever since aa a voluntary organisation. Many students who have graduated continue their membership In order to give active support to some type of educational work other than the actual claas program. The greater part ot the educational work la rarrled on In 200 rltli-s and towns In the United Slates. Here the local chapter of the American Insti tute of Honking has Its regularly or ganlsed courses of study under super vision of the nations! body with local Instructors and directors to fulfil the standard requirements regarding text material, classwork and eliminations. Instructors are recruited from the stalls ot lesdlng universities, from members of the legal profession and from among accountants and bunk men who have mle a record in some field of activity In banking that marks them aa experts. All Instructors must he approved by the national organisa tion. They are compensated by Ihe lo cal unlta. The students pay tuition. In which they are frequently aided h their employing hanks, and this, to gel her with contributions made by the banks for general rlasiiruoin overhead, flntinrre the educational r""" Education a Pathway te Advancement trading banks in various parts of the country are Insisting that their employees take work In the Insti tute. Tb's Is frequ' inly a part of their contract of employment at (he time they enter the bank. It la also now quite generally understood In the field of American banking that study In the American Institute of Hank Ing Is considered one of the basic f.iciors In the promotion of the in dividual to a place of Importance In a Imnk. The Standard Certificate of the American Institute of Hanking Is an nually gaining a greater ami wider recognition among prartlcnl hankers throughout the I'nlted States These cerllllcntes are coming to have the some Importance In the h inking world that rrrilllculcs of education have in the Held of Ihe general profeaalons This Is a practical example and one thoroughly well demonstrated by sea aoned experience of the new spirit of American business.
