Radian Launches New Interactive Training Series: 'Foundations On-Demand'

New Video Series Makes Radian Most Comprehensive Provider of On-Demand MI Training

PHILADELPHIA--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Mar. 1, 2017-- Radian Guaranty Inc. is pleased to announce the launch of its newest interactive on-demand learning program, Foundations On-Demand. Hosted and led by Radian’s distinguished National Training team, the video series of 1 – 5 minute instructive vignettes encourages mortgage professionals to learn and process vital industry information with a nod to their busy schedules. A supplement to customer favorite, the ‘Foundations’ webinar series, Foundations On-Demand makes Radian the first in the mortgage insurance (MI) space to offer such a comprehensive on-demand learning curriculum.

“At Radian, providing our customers with relevant and first-rate training is of paramount importance,” commented Kate Raetsch, vice president of National Training. “Our customers know they can count on us to deliver best-in-class training programs to help them provide the most up to date and well-informed service to their borrowers.”

In line with customer feedback Radian launched Foundations On-Demand with courses focused on: ‘Basics of Income,’ and ‘Liquid Assets,’ instructed by popular, mortgage-industry veteran trainer, Susan Walsh, as well as “Not Your Ordinary Income,” “Not Your Ordinary Asset” and “Mortgage Fundamentals.”

Other highlights of Foundations On-Demand include a new interactive workbook that facilitates easy note-taking during the video shorts. It also provides learners with useful supplemental information and the opportunity to make practice calculations. The workbook can also be printed as individual worksheets, for those users only interested in learning from one specific video instead of the entire end-to-end series.

“Radian has again paved the way for offering industry training with its new, wonderfully designed Foundations On-Demand program,” said Jason Granneman, processing manager, Metropolitan Home Mortgage, Inc. “This effective tool eliminates the need to search elsewhere for training support and showcases Radian’s commitment to partnering for success.”

“Once again, Radian has taken the first step in our industry to meet the growing needs of mortgage professionals across the country with our exclusive trainer-hosted video curriculum, Foundations On-Demand,” commented Radian’s chief franchise officer, Brien McMahon. “It’s Radian’s goal to help our customers write more business and surpass their own lending goals and we are thrilled to develop such a high-quality platform to deliver the important instruction so critical to our customers.”
