CEMAP® 2,3 Training £795.00 plus VAT

Aim

Since 31 October 2004 anybody wishing to be involved in the giving of mortgage advice has had to be authorised. As a prerequisite of obtaining authorisation it is essential to hold a recognized qualification such as Cemap®. In today's tough employment market place it is unlikely that many employers would wish to take on somebody who is not fully qualified.

After taking cemap® 1 / cefa® 1 - the common module for both mortgage and financial advisors, you now have to decide which area you wish to advise in. Financial advisors would opt for Cefa® and mortgage advisors for cemap.

Cemap® 2 is comprised of one module, mortgages, split into 4 units. Unit 3 covers mortgage law, policy practice and markets. Unit 4 looks at mortgage applications. Unit 5 mortgage payment methods and products with unit 6 looking at mortgage arrears and post completion matters.

Cemap® 3 is where we put all this newly gained knowledge into practice by means of a synoptic exam (case study based).

FAQ:

Do I need any previous experience or formal qualifications prior to coming onto the course?

No, the course is specifically designed for people with no previous experience and from all walks of life. However, we do strongly recommend that you attend the CeMap® 1 / CeFa® 1 course first.

Is there any work to do before the course or is it all covered in the classroom?

Prior to commencing the course you will be sent the IFS manual, you should at least be familiar with its contents. As with all courses you get out of it what you put in.

I have not undertaken any formal training since I left school, won't that be a problem?

Not at all, many people in the class will be in your position. Our experienced trainers put everyone at their ease, recognizing that we are all individuals and learn in different ways. In addition, class sizes are small, thereby ensuring that everybody has the chance to benefit from the trainers experience.

If I found CeMap® 1 / CeFa® 1 challenging, won't I find this course more so, particularly as you are doing this over only 6 days?

Surprisingly many of our delegates find this to be easier than the first part. To many delegates the first part was their initial introduction into what is a diverse field, this next course build on the knowledge gained, admittedly though in much more depth.

Surely the mortgage market is dead?

According to the Council of Mortgage lenders, there were 85,000 house purchase loans and re-mortgages in November 2008 and whilst it is true that these figures are down from the record highs we have become used to it still represents an awful lot of people who need advice!

So what areas will I learn?

On this course we will look at: money, basic legal concepts, asset classes, National Savings, life assurance, pensions, mortgages, taxation, social security benefits, the structure and purpose of the FSA, money laundering, compensation schemes, data protection, advice and the process of advice. Quite a varied list. In addition we add value to our courses by putting everything we learn into a practical scenario. You will be amazed to find out how much you learn about your own finances!

What's the exam like?

The exam is a multi choice exam taken at a driving test centre. It is split into two parts each consisting of 50 questions. In order to pass you need to get 35 right in each section. If you are unfortunate and miss out on one section, then, you need only retake that part.

Class Environment
Classes are kept to maximum of 8 learners to increase productivity and learning experience. This enables the trainer to give the personal attention to each learner. 

Why should I choose your organization for my training?

That's a good question and obviously whatever we say will undoubtedly be biased. Our trainers are vastly experienced, not only in the training field but in actually doing the job, having been top salespeople and top sales managers. They therefore know how to succeed and what employers are looking for. What we would say is take a look at what our trainers previous delegates have said.

Some of your competitors promise a job, do you?

No. We do suggest that you look at what they are offering. Self - employment is not employment.

How come you don't offer lunch?

We believe that you come on to our courses to learn, not for the quality of our picnics! Additionally of course, by not providing you with an inadequate sandwich we can keep our rates down giving you more value for money at a highly competitive price.
