"The Advanced Training class was very worthwhile. I especially appreciate the education in other ways to reinvent my role as an originator. I plan to increase my knowledge as a reverse mortgage specialist and specialize in divorce strategies going forward. This class clearly made me realize the huge opportunities available as a result of this negative market. Thank you!"

"I finished the CMPS certification and passed the exam on Thursday, and on Sunday, I talked to two doctors about their real estate situation. I talked to them in a totally different way and differentiated myself because of the information I learned at CMPS! I wholeheartedly recommend it."

"CMPS, you have created a fabulous certification program. The timing was just perfect in this market. Thank you for the awesome opportunity."

"I can appreciate marketing strategies. They're great. I can also appreciate methods of doing business better, and the tools to come along with them. Those are wonderful too. But at the end of the day, especially in today’s economic climate, it’s important to be relied upon as a knowledgeable expert; one who keeps his clients and referral partners informed and in the know. CMPS affords me that opportunity. The information presented is relevant, and it benefits me incredibly. I use the designation the way an accountant uses CPA®, the way a financial planner uses CFP®, and the way a doctor uses M.D. It’s that significant, and definitely worth the investment."
Samuel Melvin, CMPS®
"I was impressed with everything, with Gibran of course, but also with the venue selection, structure and information flow. I'm extremely happy that I made the effort to attend, and I look forward to the Advanced Training."
