States Adopt TrainingPro Authentication Program
Raising the security level of its courses.
Twelve state curriculums for mortgage professionals have now at least partially
incorporated an "online secure authentication program" that TrainingPro launched last year, according
to the company.
And in some states, the program is "streamlining the processing of educational records by replacing the proctor
form," the Maryland-based training firm said. "TrainingPro's Secure Authentication for E-Learning program
continues to expand in its features as well as its rate of adoption by state organizations," the company said.
The company said it has integrated the SAFE program into almost half of its state online training programs.
The program is designed to raise the security level of online courses using timers, randomized verification questions,
protected profiles or a combination of all three, according to TrainingPro. "One of the most recent examples
of increased security levels of online mortgage training is in the state of Florida. Beginning Oct. 1, the 14-hour,
biannual training requirement for mortgage brokers and loan originators must be timed if completed online,"
the company said. "TrainingPro's Florida continuing education courses comply with this new law change, and
the company has introduced the SAFE program to the state as a solution for increased security."
Adam Dennis, TrainingPro's chief technology officer, said, "Because many of TrainingPro's clients are online
students, we are committed to actively monitoring the need as well as advances in online security and incorporating
solutions that best fit the needs of our clients, associates and partners."
TrainingPro offers compliance and educational services and partners with both small and large mortgage corporations
as well as state industry associations. Among the state groups are the Pennsylvania Association of Mortgage Brokers,
the Louisiana Association of Mortgage Brokers, the Ohio Association of Mortgage Brokers, the Oregon Association
of Mortgage Professionals, the Utah Association of Mortgage Brokers, the Mississippi Association of Mortgage Brokers,
the South Carolina Mortgage Brokers Association and the Indiana Association of Mortgage Brokers. The company has
over 100,000 clients in total.
