McFarland receives diploma from LSU graduate banking school Jason McFarland is Vice President/Senior Lender, First & Farmers National Bank, Columbia, KY Click on headline for complete story with photo(s) By Mindy Smith BATON ROUGE, LA - Jason McFarland, Vice President/Senior Lender, First & Farmers National Bank, Columbia, Kentucky, is among the 205 bankers receiving graduation diplomas on June 3, 2016 from the Graduate School of Banking at Louisiana State University. This three-year program provides courses covering all aspects of banking, economics and related subjects. Students traveled from twenty-three states and Mexico to participate in this Session. Regarding this esteemed accomplishment, Ann Martin, President of First & Farmers National Bank states: "We appreciate Jason's great dedication and enthusiasm while attending on-site courses at LSU, and as he completed required online assignments. The Graduate School of Banking at LSU challenges its students through strenuous coursework. He willingly took time away from his lovely family to attend this program. I am confident that he will project the knowledge gained at LSU throughout his daily interactions at FFNB." Sponsored by 15 southern state bankers associations in cooperation with the Division of Continuing Education at LSU, the banking school requires attendance on campus for three years, with extensive bank study assignments between sessions. The faculty consists of bankers, business and professional leaders, and educators from all parts of the U.S. During their three years at the Graduate School of Banking, students receive 180 hours of classroom instruction, thirty hours of reviews, planned evening study, and written final examinations at the end of each session. McFarland states: "I am humbled and gracious to have had the opportunity to attend the Graduate School of Banking at Louisiana State University. The three year program has been a challenging, yet rewarding experience that I'm sure will benefit me for the rest of my banking career. I look forward to many more years serving the people of Adair and surrounding counties for all of their lending and banking needs." In addition to completing the LSU Graduate School of Banking program, he also completed the Kentucky Banker's Association General School of Banking in June 2013. McFarland holds a bachelor's degree in Agriculture Business and a minor in Business Administration from Western Kentucky University. He was welcomed into the First & Farmers National Bank family in 2011. McFarland is native to Adair County, where he currently owns a farm. McFarland and his wife, Melanie, reside in Campbellsville with their two children: Chloe, 6, and Chase, 3. First & Farmers National Bank, has assets in excess of $500 million, offers 12 banking locations, and serves the financial needs of customers in Columbia, Burkesville, Albany and Somerset.
