About the Maryland Association of Mortgage Professionals

MEMBERSHIP	The Membership Committee works to promote diversity and activities among the members to enhance the services members can offer one another. Membership recommends to the Board of Directors activities that would be of interest to our members and, to create awareness among members of the activities offered by MAMP. We promote that active participation in our mortgage profession can lead to enhancing your business professionalism among your peers and the community as a quality provider of residential lending services.
EEDUCATION/ANNUAL CONFERENCE	The Education Committee is committed to providing classes to enhance and improve your business. MAMP offers a variety of courses including Fair Lending, State and Federal Compliance, Ethics, Marketing, Commercial Lending, FHA, and other topics of timely interest for our members. This training not only provides knowledge, it prepares you to become certified as the holder of the CMC, CRMS, or other recognized designation for exceptional members of our industry. Remember, knowledge is power! The annual MAMP Conference is held every spring. Every year attendees are drawn to the convention to visit with exhibitors, both lender and Industry supporters. The convention is the place to learn technological advancements and legislative changes that affect our business. The convention also creates a great opportunity to network and socialize with your peers.
GOLF/SOCIAL	The golf/social committee plans two golf outings per year as well as other networking events. These events are held to promote networking.
FEDERAL LEGISLATIVE	The National Legislative Committee of MAMP interfaces with the National Association of Mortgage Brokers (NAMB) regarding all federal legislation and regulations. Members of the National Legislative Committee form the grassroots base to lobby and organize fund-raisers for Maryland's Senators and Representatives. The National Legislative Committee is also MAMP's liaison to HUD for RESPA, the Federal Reserve for TILA and all other Federal agencies enforcing laws which affect mortgage brokers. The National Legislative Chair must report all proposed changes of significance at the Federal level to the MAMP Board of Directors.
STATE LEGISLATIVE	The State Legislative committee works closely with MAMP's lobbyist to follow all statewide legislative issues and disseminate legislative information to the members. The Committee meets on an as needed basis during Maryland's legislative sessions and discusses pending legislation that might impact the industry. Members of the Committee then meet with Senators and Delegates in an attempt to educate them on our issues and testify when needed at Bill Hearings in front of the Senate Finance Committee and the House Economic Matters Committee. In addition, the committee holds various fundraisers and events to support the MAMP PAC and foster the Association's relationships with Members of the Maryland Senate and House of Delegates.
