The Mortgage Industry Foundation proudly announces the acquisition of The Institute of Mortgage Lending (IML) from the National Association of Professional Mortgage Women (NAPMW). This purchase will provide additional means for the Foundation to fulfill its purpose of providing valuable, yet affordable, educational opportunities to members of the mortgage industry community.

The Institute of Mortgage Lending was established as an education arm of NAPMW and conferred its first designations in 1991. Following that launch of the Graduate of Mortgage Lending program, three additional programs were introduced over the next fifteen years. During its active years The Institute provided educational opportunity to hundreds of mortgage industry workers at all levels of employment.

Founded in 1993 as a 501 (c) 3, tax exempt corporation, the Mortgage Industry Foundation has been a valuable supporter of The Institute of Mortgage Lending. Because the various course offerings of the IML have been unavailable for several years, the Foundation looks forward to updating and reviving the Graduate of Mortgage Lending (GML) and Master of Mortgage Lending (MML) designation-conferring programs in the coming year. We will keep you updated throughout our progress.
