AAPL Education Forum: Elevating Knowledge. Strengthening the Industry.

AAPL is proud to announce an exciting evolution in our educational programming. After thoughtful consideration and feedback from our members, we are retiring the Fund Forum and introducing a broader, more inclusive platform: the AAPL Education Forum.

The AAPL Education Forum expands beyond fund‑specific content to deliver comprehensive learning across every sector of the private lending industry. This enhanced format reflects AAPL’s commitment to advancing professional standards, strengthening industry knowledge, and supporting the growth of lenders, capital providers, servicers, brokers, and industry partners.

We are also pleased to share that Scott Ward, in partnership with Think Realty, will continue to lead these discussions. Scott’s expertise, practical insights, and ability to connect industry professionals have been central to the success of our educational programs, and we are thrilled to carry that leadership forward into this next chapter.

The AAPL Education Forum will feature expert‑driven sessions, actionable training, and collaborative dialogue designed to help private lending professionals navigate market dynamics, regulatory considerations, operational challenges, and emerging trends with confidence.

This transition marks a significant step in strengthening the value we deliver to our members and the industry at large. We look forward to welcoming you to the AAPL Education Forum, where we continue our mission of Elevating Knowledge. Strengthening the Industry.
