then says in their brochure that you will need to undertake 4 hours of study reading per day for 14 days prior to attending the course.

After many years in the Financial Services industry, I have come to the conclusion that for many people, the ideal solution to their CeMAP training needs is a comprehensive home study course with tutor support. In depth studies of training techniques have shown that people learn in different ways

CeMAP training is one of the growth areas in the education and training market today. With the mortgage industry crying out for people who have completed their CeMAP training course and passed their exams, there are a growing number of companies entering the market place offering CeMAP training courses.

Unfortunately, as is always the case in these situations, there are CeMAP training courses, and there are those that only claim to be CeMAP training courses. There is a worrying trend developing of trying to push people through the exams faster and faster, with questionable results. The first thing to bear in mind when selecting a company to provide your CeMAP training course is the standard of training that you will receive. While time taken can obviously be a factor, quickest is not always best, especially when you are embarking on a new career.

Many of the so-called crash courses promise to drive students through the exams in ever decreasing amounts of time – you only need to think about the depth of content involved in the exams to understand why CeMAP training courses delivered in this way are dubious at best. The syllabus for the CeMAP exams is broad reaching and comprehensive and to try to compress CeMAP training into desperately short timescales is unrealistic for most people.

The important fact to bear in mind when considering where to enrol for your CeMAP training course is that no classroom course can teach you everything you need to know in 5 days, or 3 days or whatever the latest miracle training company is promising. You will always have to complete a certain amount of home study with any classroom course, in fact one company that advertises with a headline of CeMAP training in five days then says in their brochure that you will need to undertake 4 hours of study reading per day for 14 days prior to attending the course.

After many years in the Financial Services industry, I have come to the conclusion that for many people, the ideal solution to their CeMAP training needs is a comprehensive home study course with tutor support. In depth studies of training techniques have shown that people learn in different ways, some like to see something, some like to hear something, and others prefer to be involved in doing an exercise. In truth, most people learn most effectively when all three forms of training are combined.

The best home study CeMAP training course available that I have encountered offers students all three methods of training. It does this by providing the student with study material in four different media forms – Video DVD's, Audio CD's, Books, and an interactive CD ROM. Let's explore why this course works so well for so many people.

Using the Video DVD's the students can watch as a trainer takes them through the complete syllabus, typically in a similar manner to classroom training but with the advantage of being able to stop and start the DVD, skip backwards and forwards, and repeat lessons as necessary.

The Audio CD's can be then be used for top up study while the student is doing something else or, for some students, they may become the main study tool. One of the huge benefits that the Audio CD's have is that they can be used away from the house or desk. An example of this is that many students have transferred their Audio CD's onto MP3 players and they now study while they are out walking, at the gym, or travelling to work. Because the CD's cover the whole syllabus, this study time is immensely valuable.

The books present the CeMAP training syllabus as Key Facts so that the student doesn't have to read through paragraphs of text to find the key learning point, this has already been done. It is recommended that the student reviews the book whilst viewing the DVD's, stopping and starting the DVD and making additional notes as required. This activity is ideal for those that 'learn by doing'.
