The commercial banking world is known for its dynamic nature, high stakes, and inherent complexity. As Credit is one of the primary risks for all banks, success for analysts, lenders, the credit team and the bank is directly related to having a strong foundation in commercial credit training. Recognizing the growing skills gap in the industry, Credit Training, Inc., led by David Nicholson, has added the recently launched Credit Library in addition to the Formal Commercial Credit Training through Credit Training, Inc.
“Many analysts and lenders have been struggling in their careers, which put the banks at risk and this is primarily due to a lack of formal commercial credit training,” explains Nicholson. “I was fortunate to have received strong credit training when I started my career, but that’s no longer the norm. It used to be required, and now for most banks, it is not. The Credit Library aims to fill that void and empower the next generation of banking professionals.”
The Credit Library is an unmatched commercial resource, offering numerous essential courses on commercial credit topics, financial accounting, and financial statement analysis. It’s designed to be a pre-credit training resource as well as a continued educational resource for established analysts and lenders, providing easy access to core credit knowledge and bridging the gap in credit understanding.
It is like having a 25 year Commercial Banker right there to explain and teach what you need to know, because it was developed by a 25 year Commercial Banker.
Key features of the Credit Library include:
- Easy-to-navigate course selection
- Comprehensive syllabuses for each course
- Continuously expanding course material, including contributions from industry specialists
- Knowledge assessments through course-ending tests result in digital certificates for passing grades.
- Access via the Credit Library website
- Engagement opportunities on Instagram (@creditlibrary) and YouTube (@creditlibrary)
“Commercial banking is inherently risky,” Nicholson emphasizes. “Strong banks are built on strong credit and lending teams, and that starts with robust credit training with a firm foundation in financial accounting and financial statement analysis. The Credit Library is here to provide that foundation.”
