Whether you're brand new to the role - or ready to step into a higher level of responsibility - this is the program that transforms you from task-taker to trusted operational partner.
If you want clarity, confidence, structure, and the skills to run a mortgage business smoothly and independently… you’re in the right place.

The only industry-recognized training that teaches you exactly how to support a Mortgage Broker at a professional, scalable level.
From chaos to clarity.
From guessing to knowing.
This program gives you the systems, tools, and coaching to become the kind of assistant brokers rely on - and keep for life.
Without clear expectations and proven workflows, everything feels harder than it should.
Unsure what success looks like
Struggling to keep up with constant change
Wanting to be proactive, but lacking guidance
Afraid of missing something important
Wanting your broker to trust you - but not having the tools to earn that trust
You’re not alone.
Most assistants are thrown into the role with little training and expected to just “figure it out.”
And that creates stress for everyone.
When the system is unclear → mistakes happen.
When the system is documented → you shine.


Your broker wants to delegate more - but only if they can trust the work will be done accurately, confidently, and consistently.
This program gives them what they’ve always needed:
A trained assistant
Proven workflows
Less hand-holding to be proactive, but lacking guidance
A business that runs without bottlenecks
It’s the win-win that the industry has been missing.

The Certified Mortgage Broker Assistant Program was built from real workflows used by top-performing brokers across Canada.
You’ll learn the exact systems that make mortgage businesses run smoothly - without micromanagement, chaos, or crossed wires.

6 Live Coaching Calls with Cheryl
Workbook, templates, checklists, SOPs, and scripts

Graduate with the clarity, confidence, and operational mastery to run your broker’s operations independently.
Tasks get missed
Emails pile up
You second-guess yourself
Your broker is still the bottleneck
Everyone feels like they’re “behind”

Every role is clear
Every system is documented
Files move smoothly and predictably
You communicate with confidence
Brokers trust you and clients feel supported
You become the backbone of the business - not just an extra set of hands.

This is the training that our industry has been missing for a long time…until now.


Clear, structured, and applicable to your day-to-day.
So you’re not just learning - you’re applying.

Set your foundation for success with clear goals, expectations, and course setup.
Resources: Workbook, industry glossary, intake form, and Trello tracking template.

Understand the true purpose of your role and how to support a broker’s vision strategically - not just administratively.

Learn the 3-Part Method for managing your broker’s inbox, creating their “vocal guide,” and designing a time-protected calendar that drives focus and freedom.

Master document management from request to audit, using proven workflows that ensure accuracy, security, and compliance.

Understand every step of the client journey - from verifying funds to tracking leads - and how to keep files and communication on track.

Learn how to confidently support approvals, appraisals, conditions, signing packages, and compliance - so files stay organized, audit-ready, and always moving forward.

Learn how to build SOPs, run effective meetings, track performance, and support your broker’s growth long-term.

Templates, checklists, and automation-ready tools to make implementation instant.

Our 3-part system eliminates bottlenecks and builds independence.
So that work gets done all without ping-ponging responsibility.

Scripts, guides, checklists, and operating procedures - already done for you.
So that nothing lives only in your head.

Bring your questions and get coached live.
So you're never stuck without support.

Brokers and assistants learning together, problem-solving together.
So that growth isn’t isolated - it’s shared.

I am an award-winning Mortgage Broker with Cheryl Sanguinetti Mortgages™ - BRX, and the Founder of Critical Function, a training company created to help brokers like you scale with less stress and more clarity.
Throughout my career, I’ve built a high-performing mortgage business not by working harder, but by building smarter systems — the kind that protect my time, elevate the client experience, and keep my focus where it matters most: on strategy, relationships, and results.
Critical Function was born out of necessity. I needed streamlined operations, support I could trust, and tools that could adapt as fast as the market moves. Through this work, I’ve trained many assistants, implemented AI-powered systems, and created workflows that eliminate chaos and create space for growth.
Now, I’m here to help you do the same.
In this course, I’ll walk you through the exact tools, mindset shifts, and AI workflows I use in my own mortgage business, so you can cut down your admin, reclaim your time, and focus on what you do best.
