Thank you for your interest in the CRU, Certified Residential Underwriter designation. Due to changes in legislation, REIC is not able to accept Canadian applications for the CRU, but we continue to welcome international applications.
The CRU (Certified Residential Underwriter) designation elevates your status as a specialist in residential mortgage underwriting. The CRU credential is ideal for professionals in credit and property risk assessment who work in residential mortgage underwriting.
The CRU curriculum enhances your knowledge and skills in legal and regulatory issues, mortgage lending, property risk assessment, and professional ethics. REIC 2340: Mortgage Lending for Residential Housing, a core course in the CRU curriculum, was developed by, and is delivered in partnership with, the Canada Mortgage and Housing Corporation (CMHC).
