CeMAP training does not have to be undertaken with a professional financial training company. Indeed, you can simply register with the ifs School of Finance and study the manuals. However, many people do take professional CeMAP training, so what are the advantages of doing so?
- Pretty much the entire mortgage industry believes that the ifs study manuals are not only difficult to study but that the material is much better understood when communicated face to face or with the one to one support available with some professional home study courses
- Taking professional training usually means that people get through the material faster so they can get straight onto taking the CeMAP exams
- If the course is done right, it should include revision and end-of-section tests to ensure each section is understood properly
- There are always little extras and nuggets of knowledge that a professional and experienced trainer can pass on
