Becoming a Debt Counsellor – Earn While You Learn Opportunity
Helping consumers deal with debt and credit providers recover funds is a great way to help South Africa’s economy improve. With more and more people turning to debt review each month there is a need for more and more qualified people to assist these consumers. If you are working in the field of debt review but have been wondering if you should do the Debt Counsellors Course and write the exam there has never been a better time to get into the now established industry. The challenge is how to do so in a way that is sustainable and affordable. The NCR is well known for taking half a year or more before issuing applicants (who have completed training) a practice number and registration certificate as they do background checks etc. This has proved to be a deterrent for many considering entering the market.
Eugene Cillier of PayPlan Solutions (a Debt Counselling Firm) says that: “the Debt Counselling industry demands hard work and constant innovation from all those involved. Only those who are truly dedicated to a sustainable solution prosper in the long term“. He says it is not for people wanting to get rich quick but rather for those who are dedicated to helping consumers and are passionate about the industry itself.
His firm are offering work opportunities for those interested in becoming Debt Counsellors. From their advertising it does seem that having some experience is a definite advantage. The firm offers mentorships and other avenues of furthering oneself in the debt review space. He says: “If you have built up valuable experience in the industry and are wondering about the next step in your career, we would like to hear from you. We offer many opportunities from Earn While You Learn programmes to mentorship with the view of owning and managing your own business”.
He says they are constantly on the lookout for those industry professionals who have already built up contacts within the industry (with the various Credit Provider) as this can help them in dealing with the right people at the various credit providers when challenges arise.
