Your current skills and knowledge don’t go unrecognised. There is a process to fast track your qualifications through Recognition of Prior Learning. Check the courses below to see if you’re eligible.

Certificate IV in Finance and Mortgage Broking – two or more years of loan writing experience (within the past five years)
