FNS50322 Diploma of Finance and Mortgage Broking Management Upgrade
Pathway from a Certificate IV in Finance and Mortgage Broking
The FNS50322 Diploma of Finance and Mortgage Broking Management Upgrade,
is for individuals who have previously completed a Certificate IV in Finance and Mortgage Broking qualification. Any equivalent units completed within the Certificate IV in Finance and Mortgage Broking may be credited towards this qualification. The credit transfer process is completed as a first step post enrolment.
For those who have completed the FNS40821 or FNS40820 Certificate IV in Finance and Mortgage Broking with AAMC Training, there will be more equivalent units credited to the Diploma upgrade.
For those who have completed an earlier version of the Certificate IV (FNS40810 – FNS40815), there may be less credit transfer due to non-equivalency of units in the later versions of this course.
Please note that when enrolling into the Diploma upgrade that you select the correct option based on the Certificate IV in Finance and Mortgage Broking that you hold.
If you have been a broker for more than two years and have experience with complex lending please consider the Diploma Upgrade via RPL pathway.

Although we provide 7-10 months to complete the course, many that have an industry background or understanding of the broking process may already be familiar with some of the content of the course and assessment requirements. Based on previous student data we have established that the course may be done within 8-12 weeks. This will also largely depend on personal capacity and availability. Those without an industry background, but have more available time to study, may also be able to achieve a similar time frame.
