GROWING YOUR BUSINESS

Mortgage broker training and mentorship

Training is not a welcome package. It is what happens every week, on real files, with the people who fund them.

Every brokerage says it offers training. The useful question is what happens on a Tuesday in month four. Here is the answer at A.I.M.I. Collective, in the order a broker meets it.

How training works here

Weekly lender training

Lender BDMs and underwriters walk through products, policy changes and the files they are declining. Recorded for the portal.

One on one mentorship

Every new broker is paired with an experienced broker for their first files. Existing brokers get a mentor for the next stage, whether that is B lending, private or commercial.

Deal Desk file reviews

Submit a hard file to our underwriting desk and you learn how it was structured. Brokers use it as much for the education as the placement.

Lender matchmaking events

The Broker Collective private lending forum and the Commercial Matchmaking Forum put brokers in the room with the lenders they will submit to.

Lender Lens podcast

Conversations with lender executives on what they are funding and why. Public, so you can start listening before you join.

Broker portal library

Compliance, branding, lender resources and training videos in one place, with categories the brokerage keeps current.

Training that pays for itself

A single B or commercial file placed correctly instead of declined covers a year of training time. That is the standard we hold each session to.

Find your path

Who runs it

Training is led by our founders and team leads, including brokers ranked in the CMP Top 75 in Canada, and by the lenders themselves. Meet the people on our team page and see the current schedule on our events page.

Our approach

We onboard licensed brokers only, so the licence is yours to earn before we can help with anything else. After that you get weekly lender training, a team chat where new and experienced brokers answer around the clock, and senior brokers who will work your first files alongside you. There is no scripted programme with a guaranteed timeline. There is a room full of people who pick up.
