If you want to be a CFO for a bank, you'd be an idiot not to go to this. I am a commercial banker and graduated from the LSU School of Banking.
Do you know what ALCO is? If you can't answer that then you definitely need to attend. The program teaches you how to be a generalist in the banking sense rather than a specialist (ie CFO). While you may want to be a CFO, the school will give you a great feel of the other parts to running a bank, all of which will help you succeed as a CFO.
There are a lot more to banks these days than just taking in deposits and making loans. Throw in all the new Regs that come out daily it seems and you have more crap to worry with than you know what to do with!

I am a bank examiner for the government and a lot of my colleagues have attended LSU Graduate School of Banking....they speak really high of the program. I hear it is very good for networking and I would definitely go when I get the chance. If you want to stay in banking then it would be foolish not to attend.
Highly Recommend!
