Paradigm has strengthened its CPD Academy’s Test Zone, adding a new mortgage test module.
This new product and advice test is aimed at helping advisory firm staff demonstrate their knowledge within this area, with a wide range of resources and training materials.
These include activity-based learning such as Paradigm’s mortgage webinars and lender insight videos. This is capped off with multiple choice questions and case studies, helping advisers put their learning into practice.
There are now 18 tests available in the Test Zone, covering topics such as mortgage fraud, consumer duty, complaints handling and anti-money laundering.
Christine Newell, mortgages technical director at Paradigm, commented: “The mortgage product area test is a great new addition and sits alongside our other product area tests which cover both protection and general insurance, and come with a range of online training support and resources to help achieve a successful outcome.
“It is suitable for all staff within an intermediary business, not just advisers, and covers topical mortgage content.
"We believe there will be much to be gained from working through this and taking the test to demonstrate competence in this area and to ensure ongoing professional development.”
