NCHER is pleased to join The Institute of Student Loan Advisors (TISLA) in offering an inaugural Student Loan Counseling Boot Camp, which will be held on March 10-12, 2021 through Zoom.
As organizational resources continue to be impacted by the economic downturn and tenured staff retire because of changes in the student loan industry, it can be difficult to find trusted and experienced industry experts to assist new staff in learning the ins and outs of the student loan programs. Whether you are an existing federal student loan servicer, private collection agency, or potential winner under the Next Generation Financial Services Environment, we know that the 40 million student loan borrowers who will begin paying their loans back later this year will need repayment assistance. Our industry will need as many experts as possible to help counsel these borrowers.
If you are a FFEL servicer or guaranty agency or a private education loan servicer, we know how important it is for you and your staff to have the knowledge and tools of what is available across federal programs, including the Federal Direct Loan program and FFELP, and how to conduct effective student loan counseling so that you can continue to provide high-quality services to your borrowers.
TISLA President Betsy Mayotte, a nationally recognized expert in student loan regulations and effective borrower counseling, has agreed to offer a series of courses aimed at providing our members with the knowledge they need to effectively counsel student loan borrowers. Ms. Mayotte has provided similar presentations for institutions of higher education, financial planning, and wealth management companies. The first course titled, Student Loan Counseling Boot Camp, consists of nine hours offered over three days. The course will provide participants with the expertise that they need to counsel approximately 99 percent of the borrowers they may encounter.
The course includes the following topics:
