The Premier Educational Partners (PEP) Program is an industry collaboration between lenders and Get Commercial with Us to strengthen broker capability through targeted commercial finance education.
Rather than focusing only on deal flow, the PEP Program invests in long-term industry capability.
Through this initiative, lender partners co-fund scholarships and educational initiatives that equip brokers with the knowledge and confidence to operate independently across complex commercial lending scenarios.
This approach benefits brokers, lenders, and clients by improving the overall quality of commercial transactions across the industry.
Commercial finance is growing rapidly, but many brokers hesitate to enter the space.
The barrier is rarely opportunity. The barrier is confidence and capability.
Many brokers worry about:
reputational risk if they get a deal wrong
not understanding complex structures
navigating unfamiliar lender requirements
damaging relationships with lenders or clients
At Get Commercial with Us, our courses focus on the practical decision-making frameworks brokers need to structure commercial transactions responsibly.
The Premier Educational Partners Program extends this mission by allowing lenders to actively support broker capability development.
Premier Educational Partners collaborate with Get Commercial with Us to provide brokers with funded or subsidised access to specialised commercial finance courses.
This may include:
Fully funded scholarships
Partially funded course placements
Educational initiatives supporting broker capability
Joint industry education events and webinars
Each partnership is designed to expand broker education while maintaining independence in lender selection and deal structuring.
The goal is not to direct deal flow, but to support brokers in developing the knowledge required to operate confidently in commercial finance.
Forward-thinking lenders recognise that stronger broker capability benefits the entire lending ecosystem.
When brokers understand:
transaction structuring
risk assessment
documentation requirements
lender appetite
the quality of submissions improves and transactions move more efficiently.
Through the Premier Educational Partners Program, lenders contribute to raising commercial standards across the industry while supporting broker education.
Brokers participating through PEP scholarships gain:
access to specialised commercial lending education
practical frameworks for structuring transactions
insight into lender perspectives and risk considerations
greater confidence when discussing commercial deals with clients
The aim is to help brokers master commercial finance.
The program launched with the support of forward-thinking lenders who recognise the value of investing in broker education.
Current partners include:
Astro Capital Finance
Australian Mortgage Fund (AMF)
Octet Finance Australia
These organisations have co-invested in scholarship allocations to support broker capability development in private lending and commercial finance.
We welcome conversations with lenders who share the goal of strengthening broker capability and supporting responsible growth in commercial finance.
If your organisation is interested in participating in the Premier Educational Partners Program, we would be pleased to discuss how we can collaborate.
