When BB&T (along with Bank of America, First Union, and Wachovia) departed from the North Carolina Bankers Association in 1997—an act that made employees of those banks ineligible to attend the North Carolina School of Banking (at UNC-Chapel Hill)—the company responded by creating the BB&T Banking School at Wake Forest University. BB&T has since rejoined the North Carolina Bankers Association, but has continued to operate its own internal school—the only one of its kind in the United States.
