Learning is a continuous journey and, in the world, as it unfolds before us, elearning platforms and digital learning is the way to go. The courses covered by Athena e – learn are extremely topical for the financial industry. The soft skills course, again brings to sharp focus a need to FILL a gap I personally believe always needed to be addressed.
We consulted Athena Advisors at a very critical stage of our journey when we were trying to re-engineer our processes to gear up for a high growth phase, decentralise our operations, increase our employee strength multifold thereby bringing in challenges of retaining the unique culture of the organisation and training, and most importantly have proper controls and regulatory checks in place. Athena's leadership under Mr. Satish Mehta, understood our challenges and brought in the clarity required to plan the course of action, prioritise, plan, implement and review the changes being made. What stands out is Team Athena's approach of being a facilitator and encouraging our team to think through the various tasks and find solutions themselves. They were very thorough with the details throughout the process, going deep where required to ensure no aspect is missed out, being accessible for any help we needed anytime, made our team members feel they were part of our team and not an external consultant advising us. They have a team which is a fine balance of extremely experienced senior industry professionals and young professionals with fresh ideas. This helped us challenge some of our practices and processes and bring in fresh ideas to adapt to the changing business requirements and their experience ensured there were proper controls and checks. The training modules they have and some they helped us develop are unique, and probably amongst the best in the industry today.
Regular training is a key tool for making sure any entity achieves, maintains & improve overall productivity, more so in retail financial services where day to day interaction with the front line has always been a challenge. Covid pandemic has helped us revisit & challenge all established processes & training methodology is no exception. E-learning tools if designed & deployed correctly can help & aid in the entire journey of training & learning. E-learning has a great future & happy to see this initiative being spear headed by Athena & its founder Mr. Satish Mehta, a veteran & an institution by himself within the retail financial services world. Industry expert designed training module has distinct advantage of being able to target & capture the ‘real’ issues & help make sure of targeted training. I wish Athena e-learn & Mr. Mehta all the very best on their new venture.
Associating with Athena e-learn team has been a tremendous privilege for me, they are the perfect solution for seasoned professionals who are already working in Housing Finance space and who want to further enhance their skill set in various cross functional areas within the housing finance space.

The Athena team possess in-depth knowledge of industry which they deliver with graciousness and professionalism. A must attend for every professional in BFSI domain……….!!!
"Athena is a training platform led by Satish Mehta - a pioneer in Housing Finance & Credit in India and in developing economies . Satish's passion for training, deep understanding of housing finance and his ability to stay ahead of the curve on emerging trends in housing finance sets him apart from others. In housing finance, the only product patent a lender has is well trained personnel and quality customer service. For lenders to stay at the forefront, continuous training is imperative and Athena e-learn delivers this as a one-stop package. Satish has ensured that the package provides not just the technical skills of credit and lending but also the more important soft skills required to be a successful Housing Finance practitioner. Satish in his long career has straddled the fields of Housing Finance, Credit Bureaus, Retail Financial Services, Training and Development and this initiative is testimony to the fact that he continues to reinvent himself and has integrated all his learnings into an easy to access platform - Athena.
Working for Athena was a very enriching experience for me. Although a boutique consultancy firm, it was through Athena that I got to work on my maiden Credit Bureau assignment and that too an overseas one. By virtue of the assignments I worked on during my stint here, I not only learned and developed skills related to my domain but also got exposure to cross functional learning which has helped in overall growth in my career. Founder of Athena - Mr Satish Mehta (SM as we call him) has always been very encouraging and has extended all the support needed to take any assignment to its successful closure. My time here was a mixed bag of work as well as light moments and fun team activities which I will always cherish.
Athena helped me mould essential skills required in consulting while giving me a robust understanding of the Credit Information and Mortgage sector. My time at Athena helped me grow professionally and personally and I am extremely grateful for having an opportunity to work here.
Firstly, I sincerely thank Mr. Satish Mehta and his Team for accepting this offer of engagement from AHAM Housing Finance. The original idea for our engagement was to have our supervisors trained on underwriting, customer selection , portfolio management and on other soft skills management including delegation , time management etc. and while the same was carried out , I wanted to know if the assumptions that we had considered in constructing the business model was right and wanted a validation. That is where our organisation benefited the most , Team Athena was able to see through the minute gaps in the business model and helped us fix them. The understanding that company possesses is so supreme and by that virtue we now have a rock-solid business model for Affordable Housing Finance. I took Team Athena’s help to talk to my immediate report explaining what it takes to be a promoter / entrepreneur of an early-stage Housing Finance company. When a person of Satish Sir's stature talks your mind to the most important teammates , it is a great idea to reinforce your thoughts on the team and drive them. Athena’s reflection of the company's strategies and thought processes really matters in the Housing Finance space. We stand to gain immensely on having Athena as our Advisors. Thanks for such a lovely engagement , cheers.
We worked with Athena Advisors on refining our credit policy and benchmarking to market. Satish’s team is a pioneer in the housing finance business and understands the nuances of the business. Typically they have multiple solutions to business challenges. They usually discuss, debate and more importantly disagree with our shelf solutions! It is a pleasure to work with the team and I have no hesitation in recommending their services to anyone looking to upskill and re-skill their teams and build scalable operations.

Need for training can never be over emphasized in a service sector growing at the CAGR we have seen in the financial service sector and especially the housing finance sector. To remain on top of the wave, having people on the ground with the right skills and job knowledge is critical. A comprehensive induction training followed up with regular refresher courses are critical for better productivity and quality. This is why choosing the right training partner is a very important. I found a perfect partner in Athena e-learn for this role. The sheer experience Mr. Satish Mehta brings to the table, as a person who has a perspective of a credit officer under writing loans, a perspective at a Board level for a business strategy and the vast experience he has as a trainer himself. His passion for training is the icing on the already well baked cake of content of the training modules. In my opinion, and am being modest, it will be a privilege for anybody to undergo training on these modules, they are complete, detailed, easy to follow and from the best trainer I have known.
