Program Overview: What is Credit Risk Management and IFRS 9 Modelling Corporate Training?
Credit Risk Management & IFRS 9 Modelling Corporate Training is a 30-hour instructor-led program for credit risk, finance, and modelling teams that own expected credit loss measurement. Across seven modules, participants work through credit risk and IFRS 9 foundations, staging and significant increase in risk, PD modelling with lifetime calibration, LGD and EAD modelling, ECL measurement with scenario weighting, and validation, backtesting, and the regulatory view. It closes with an end-to-end ECL model build where each team constructs a working model on a realistic portfolio.
Training is built around modelling practice: seven practice sessions alternate with instructor walkthroughs, so participants build transition matrices, calibrate PD and lifetime models, estimate LGD and EAD, and compute ECL across weighted scenarios with their own hands. Each lab works on realistic portfolio data, with the instructor reviewing model logic, challenging assumptions, and coaching the reconciliation of ECL movements for reporting. Concepts are introduced briefly, then the floor belongs to guided building with peer review after every major step. The program culminates in a five-hour capstone where teams deliver a complete end-to-end ECL model build, from staging logic to scenario-weighted measurement.
Banks that treat IFRS 9 as a compliance checkbox end up with ECL numbers nobody trusts: staging logic that misclassifies risk, scenario weights chosen by habit, and provisioning surprises that hit earnings without warning. Regulators and auditors probe exactly these weak points, and models built on shaky foundations do not survive the challenge. This program builds the foundations properly: sound staging, calibrated lifetime models, defensible scenario weighting, and ECL movements a team can explain and reconcile.
The capstone's end-to-end ECL model build is the program's proof: each team delivers a working expected credit loss model covering staging logic, transition matrices, PD, LGD and EAD components, scenario-weighted ECL, and reconciled movement reporting, built on a realistic portfolio. The instructor stress-tests every model the way a validator or regulator would, so fragile assumptions break in the lab instead of under audit. Teams return with more than a certificate: a tested modelling blueprint, validation checklists, and documentation habits they can apply to their own portfolios immediately.
The training focuses on practical application: teams Understand staging logic, build transition matrices, compute ECL across scenarios, and reconcile movements for reporting. Content is tailored to your portfolio types and regulatory environment.

Credit Risk Analyst to ECL Model Owner
Skills map to the curriculum: foundations teach staging and SICR, practice labs build PD, LGD, EAD, and ECL, and the apply phase plus capstone develop validation skills to owner level.
One program that grows with credit careers, from staging basics to owning a full ECL build.
Mixed cohort, or several teams at once?
We can tailor the training to different teams, roles, and experience levels within the same program.

Where this Training Fits in Your Team's learning path.
IFRS 9 modelling assumes your team already understands credit analysis. This course then covers credit risk management and expected credit loss models. Machine learning methods follow for more advanced modelling, and Basel capital management links credit risk to regulatory capital.

Connect IFRS 9 Staging With Transparent Expected Credit Loss Models
Edstellar guides portfolio teams through staging, lifetime default estimates, loss and exposure analysis, and scenario-weighted ECL. Participants build a calculation workbook and examine validation evidence using a demo portfolio. The final model review focuses on consistent assumptions, traceable stage decisions, calculation accuracy, and clear communication of uncertainty and limitations.
- Step 01
Consult
We review credit and spreadsheet familiarity to identify gaps in IFRS 9 staging, SICR logic, lifetime PD, and scenario-weighted loss calculations.
- Step 02
Plan
We establish credit-risk foundations before staging and SICR, then PD calibration, LGD and EAD, scenario weighting, and validation within the ECL model.
- Step 03
Align
We align ECL instruction with credit, modeling, finance, and validation roles, matching spreadsheet support and portfolio examples to existing analytical experience.
- Step 04
Customize
We tailor demo loan books, collateral assumptions, and macro scenarios to relevant portfolios while keeping borrower information synthetic and model limitations visible.
- Step 05
Execute
Participants justify stage transfers, build PD curves, and calculate ECL, receiving feedback on scenario assumptions, collateral effects, reconciliation, and validation findings.
- Step 06
Evaluate
We assess the model and summary for traceable staging, consistent parameter calculations, transparent scenario weights, and a balanced explanation of backtesting and uncertainty.
