Just Mortgages has launched a new 12-week masterclass course for brokers for when they finish going through the academy. 

The pathway to competence course, designed by former brokers, aims to support new brokers as they transition from receiving their CeMAP qualification to advising clients. 

The full-day masterclass session includes advice from a lender on progressing cases and a session on criteria. 

Last year, 45 brokers qualified through the Just Mortgages academy. The first academy of this year has been completed, with 12 brokers currently going through the masterclass course.

Just Mortgages’ adviser development manager and curator of the course Heidi Smith says: “Investing time in our brokers as they make the first steps in their careers is a crucial part of ensuring they are successful.”

Smith comments: “The mortgage market is a very fast-paced industry so brokers need to hit the ground running, and the first few weeks and months can be overwhelming. Our role is to ensure brokers can come to us with any questions and our course is designed to make every broker a success.” 

“Most newly qualified brokers were asking us about the research stage of the process and by helping them through the procedure, we can give them the confidence to flourish,” she adds.
