First and foremost, the most important aspect of becoming a mortgage associate in Alberta is that we all require licenses to operate in this industry.
“What does it take to get my license to work as a mortgage associate in Alberta?”
Simply put, today’s licensing process looks like this (please click the hyperlinks to learn more):
1) Determine your eligibility to enrol
… and by the time that you’re done the two courses, you’re eligible to be licensed at the brokerage of your choice.
The courses focus primarily on instilling the ‘foundation’ of the industry from a regulatory, legal and compliance perspective… they also focus on manual mathematical competency for mortgage number-crunching.
In actual practice, your computer, and smartphone apps will do the number-crunching for you. The current licensing program offers little about teaching business building, marketing and sales techniques – this is a major point of frustration for many that have completed the course. This is absolutely 100% the ‘raison d’être’ for our in-house associate development programs here Trimor – we’re here to help you establish yourself with a unique position in the Calgary market and help ensure your focused, planned success in the mortgage industry.
