Education

At Standard, our commitment to continuing education is an integral part of our business culture. Through participation in symposia, conferences and trade association events, and in publications we author, we continuously explore strategies to help our clients mitigate and recover losses associated with problem loans.

In our daily interaction with customers and strategic alliance partners we share information on evolving business practices, changes in the law and in industry regulations, and new strategies for mitigating loss and asset recovery.

We offer free of charge our Foreclosure 101 handbook, which provides a detailed overview of foreclosure processing steps in California, with special sections on bankruptcy law and receivership.

Our seminar series, Strategies for Surviving the Subprime Collapse, is co-sponsored with Scheer Law Group, LLP. In these seminars we explore key issues of the day, such as changes in bankruptcy law, the growing tide of defaults relating to loan fraud and pending and recently-enacted legislation.

If you wish to receive copies of the proceedings from any of our seminars, please contact Lou Ann Maihofer at 925.603.1031 or e-mail her now.

We encourage and reward employees to complete trade association certification courses offered by industry trade associations, such as the Mortgage Bankers Association and the United Trustees Association.
