AFN Onsite™ Training Program

The Loan Servicing & Legal Services landscape is changing on an almost daily basis. The advent of predatory lending has changed our industry dynamically. State and federal agencies and the rating entities will continue to examine the internal / external processes and vendor relationships associated with servicing a defaulted loan. As a result, loan servicing costs are on the rise and our financial service partners are facing tremendous challenges. Navigating the twists and turns created by this emergent environment requires a unique set of problem solving skills.

Through the AFN Onsiteprogram, we are able to offer onsite educational training & consultation to our financial services partners, create active dialogue and present innovative solutions that provide them with opportunities to create best practices & improve their internal and external process management skills.

The American Legal and Financial Network (AFN) is proud to announce AFN Onsite™, an industry first.  AFN Onsite™ is an education based program designed to compliment your current training by bringing a wealth of industry experience and knowledge to your employees.
