Paradigm adds new mortgage module to CPD Test Zone

Published on

Paradigm has introduced a new mortgage test module to its CPD Academy’s Test Zone, expanding the range of resources available to advisory firm staff.

The module is designed to support knowledge development in mortgage products and advice, with training materials and study support available through the CPD Academy.

COMPREHENSIVE LEARNING RESOURCES

The CPD Test Zone is part of Paradigm’s CPD Academy and provides a structured approach to professional development. It offers video learning followed by multiple-choice questions and case studies, helping advisers apply their knowledge in real-world scenarios. The new mortgage module adds to existing training options, which include mortgage webinars and Lender Insight videos.

There are now 18 tests available in the Test Zone, covering subjects such as anti-money laundering, mortgage fraud, consumer duty, vulnerable clients, and general insurance product knowledge. The CPD Academy also provides access to a literature library, training materials, and details of CPD-focused events.

SUPPORTING PROFESSIONAL DEVELOPMENT

Christine Newell, mortgages technical director at Paradigm, said: “At Paradigm, we have always focused on intermediary education and helping to deliver the best possible customer outcomes.

“Since we launched the CPD Test Zone as part of our CPD Academy in 2020, member firms and their staff have taken tens of thousands of tests with over 24,000 having been successfully passed. These tests form a key part of our firms’ training and competence programmes and we remain committed to ensuring the tests available are as up to date as possible, and cover a wide range of topics.

“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.”
