Entry-Level Credit Training

Evaluating Credit Risk is a 14-day credit risk analysis training program for entry-level lenders. The curriculum is a rigorous combination of lectures, case studies and after class assignments which analyze actual credit situations.

The Evaluating Credit Risk program teaches participants to write credit analyses and, for its final requirement, has each participant analyze a credit and write a credit recommendation using the sponsoring bank’s format.

The analysis is then evaluated and the results are forwarded both to the participant and to the sponsoring bank. This program has proven to be a cost-effective alternative to an in-house bank credit training program.

The case studies have a specific market focus: corporate, middle market, or community banking.
