Posted by Alyse Knudsen on October 8, 2025

OnPoint Community Credit Union announced a new partnership with The School of Business at Portland State University, designed to help prepare students for a successful career. OnPoint will be folded into several School of Business events throughout the 2025-2026 school year, while also providing guest speakers and panelists for business classes and gatherings. Oregon’s largest credit union will also cover the cost of new headshots for students, giving them a professional start to their business careers.

“Any successful career begins with a solid educational foundation, and The School of Business at PSU has provided its students with an exceptional experience for more than 50 years,” said Bob Harding, Chief Commercial Officer, OnPoint Community Credit Union. “Education is OnPoint’s foundation, so the partnership makes perfect sense. We look forward to supporting the next generation of business leaders, and we are excited to enrich their PSU experience and encourage their ambition.”

Event Sponsorship
Through the new partnership, OnPoint will sponsor several university events providing advice and information to students in the School of Business:

• Financial Wellness Day on Oct. 23, 2025. Students will have the opportunity to meet with representatives from local organizations in the financial wellness space, including OnPoint.
• A finance career panel discussion during the Winter 2026 term, featuring professionals from the local finance community. An OnPoint branch manager will be one of the panel experts.
• The Portland State Winter All Majors & Business Fair, which will be held on Feb. 9, 2026, will bring representatives from more than 100 employers to campus for students to meet, network, and explore potential careers.

“We are incredibly grateful to OnPoint Community Credit Union for their generous donation to the Portland State University School of Business Career Center. This gift directly strengthens our ability to provide business students with the critical resources and career coaching they need to succeed,” said Shannon Aniciete, Director of Business Career Services, Portland State University School of Business. “OnPoint’s investment is an investment in the future of Portland’s community, as our graduates go on to become the innovators who drive our regional economy.”

Free Headshots
To further support business students as they begin applying for job opportunities, OnPoint will cover the cost of new headshots for all interested School of Business students.

Financial Expert Guest Speakers
Through the partnership with PSU, a local OnPoint team member will serve as a guest speaker to students in the Personal Finance class and speak about their experiences with a career in finance.
