JHA GET SMARTSM
A COMPLIMENTARY PRODUCT CERTIFICATION PROGRAM
+ JHA GET SMARTSM
We are grateful for the significant investments and trust your bank has placed in the solutions provided by Jack Henry Banking®. But did you know that most banks only use approximately 60% of the functionality available in their existing technology solutions? That’s not surprising considering the many regulatory-driven and functional system enhancements developed each year, personnel changes in your bank, and the time required to keep up-to-date on the latest features and functions. But the JHA Get Smart program is here to help and it’s better than ever.
Two years ago, Jack Henry Banking announced the free Get Smart program as an optional education-based product certification program that enables in-house and outsourced banks to formally certify employees on their core system and key complementary solutions. These certifications are designed to identify and train resident solution experts who can help optimize your day-to-day use and maximize the benefits that can come from Jack Henry Banking’s products and services. We’ve developed a unique certification curriculum offered through our Jack Henry University specifically for this purpose. JHA Get Smart also rewards your bank for participating in specific engagement activities.

+ JHA GET SMART PROGRAM CHANGES AND HIGHLIGHTS
Based on client feedback, valuable input from client focus groups, and experience with this program during its first two years, below are some key program changes for the coming year:
• Core certifications for the SilverLake System® and CIF 20/20® will continue to include individual loans and deposits modules but the miscellaneous training module has been divided into a general ledger/accounting module and an IT/security module.
• Core certifications for Core Director® will continue to include the original three loan, deposit, and miscellaneous modules.
• Six additional complementary solutions have been added to the program: • Xperience™ • EPS Remote Deposit Anywhere™ (RDA) • jhaEnterprise Workflow™ • OnBoard Deposits™ • ArgoKeys® Deposit Keys™ • ArgoKeys® LendingKeys™
• The Banking Educational Conference (BEC) and the ProfitStars Educational Conference (PEC) have been combined into the Jack Henry Annual Conference (JAC) which will be hosted October 16 to 19, 2017 at the Gaylord Opryland in Nashville, TN. JAC will offer the following educational tracks: • Jack Henry Banking Educational Track – October 16 – 18 • ProfitStars Educational Track – October 17 – 19 • Jack Henry Banking Executive Forum – October 15 – 17

+ THE VALUABLE PERKS CORE SYSTEM DISCOUNTS FOR YOUR BANK
Each product-specific certification and participation in the designated engagement activities accrue points which
translate into core system maintenance fee discounts for in-house clients and maintenance fee equivalent discounts
on core processing services for OutLink clients. By certifying in the solutions your bank uses or by participating in
designated JHA-sponsored activities, your bank will accrue points, which translate into core system maintenance
discounts. OutLink banks receive equivalent maintenance fee discounts on core processing services. Program
discounts do not apply to complementary solution maintenance fees or complementary solution
processing services.
Participating banks are required to certify on their respective core system – SilverLake System, CIF 20/20, or Core
Director. Your bank can earn additional points and the potential for even greater core maintenance/core processing
discounts when you utilize and certify on the following solutions:

Your bank has made significant investments in the sophisticated
products and services provided by Jack Henry Banking. But
considering the complexities of today’s core and complementary
banking solutions, most banks use approximately 60% of the
functionality available in their existing technology platforms.
Regulatory-driven and functional system enhancements,
personnel changes, time restraints – there are many reasons you
might not be maximizing technology already at your fingertips.
