This article will give you a bird’s eye view of what credit reports are and some important factors that you should be aware of.

What are credit reports?

To put it in simple words a credit report is a record of all your borrowing and repaying history. It has data related to all your financial transactions, lent taken, credit card usage, repayment history, late payments and bankruptcy to name a few. So checking your credit report tin give anyone a complete idea of how well you manage your credit and if you are credit worthy. You tin get more information about credit reports here.

What is the use of a credit report?

A credit report contains all information about your credit history. It tin tell anyone if you are a responsible borrower or a reckless one. A good credit history is reflected in your report with a higher credit score and vise versa. The information on your credit report can be highly useful to lenders are early financial institutions who tin refer the reports to ensure they are giving a loan to the right person. Generally lenders shy away from people having a poor credit score and they tin give loans with lower interest rates to those with good scores. So in a way a credit report also acts as an external element forcing you to borrow responsibly.

Who records my credit history?

The recording part is done by three credit agencies namely Experian, Equifax and Transunion. Whenever you fill out an application for credit from a bank/financial institution the information is forwarded to all these three agencies. All these three agencies work individually and hence there are chances that your report will have slight differences with each agency.

What is a 3 in 1 credit report?

A 3 in 1 credit report is a reporting format that includes reports from all three credit agencies namely Experian, Equifax and Transunion. This is the best and simplest way to get access to all three credit reports in one shot rather than approaching and requesting reports from each agency separately. In addition to the ease of information access a 3 in 1 report is cheaper and saves you a lot of time as well.

How often should I check my reports?

You tin check your reports once every year but to be on the safer side it is always better to have an imputing monitoring firm monitor changes to the reports on a regular basis. This will ensure that you stay clear of credit fraud. A monitoring firm will intimate you against whatsoever major changes made to your credit report within 24 hours. This gives you a chance to check your credit report and ensure that those changes are valid and have not been made by unauthorized parties.

How can I check my reports?

The easiest way to do this is to apply online. But ensure that you are applying through a trusted source. You get access to i free credit report every year which you tin get from annualcreditreports.com. This is the only place where you should apply to get your free credit repot

What if I have used my free credit report?

You get access to a free copy of your credit report every year which you can order from annualcreditreports.com. In-case you have used up your free credit report you can still get access to your credit reports through other agencies. You can either directly approach one of the credit agencies or apply through other companies that work for these agencies.

American Sentinel University

AURORA, Colo. (PRWEB) April 19, 2012

Today’s academic environment has expanded the role of deans and directors of nursing education to go beyond curriculum development to include managing resource planning, designing new education delivery models and mapping program objectives to outcomes assessments, while navigating new laws, regulations and industry trends. But many nurse educators lack the tools needed to be effective in transforming nursing education.

That’s why American Sentinel University has designed the industry’s first online Doctor of Nursing Practice (DNP) in Educational Leadership degree specifically to foster the advanced practice of leadership in the nursing education setting.

“We are excite to introduce such an innovative degree program that prepares a nurse educator to be a different kind of leader – one who has the skills and knowledge to make and deliver new modelling of learning and learning for those in the nursing workforce,” says Catherine Garner, DrPH, MSN, RN, FAAN, dean, health sciences and nursing at American Sentinel University.

Dr. Garner says the idea for the program came from community college deans who realized they need this kind of terminal degree, but could not get traction from traditional schools.

“Because American Sentinel has taken a stance for innovative, non-traditional learning in the area of nursing education and DNP programs online, many deans came to us with the suggestions of a learner-centered curriculum and technology and simulation in learning,” adds Dr. Garner. “We then suggested additional areas, such as finance and fund development, strategic planning and higher education policy.”

The Carnegie Foundation’s 2010 publication, ‘Educating Nurses: A Call for Radical Transformation,’ and the Institute of Medicine’s 2010 report, ‘The Future of Nursing: Leading Change, Advancing Health,’ provided much of the DNP Educational Leadership program’s foundational ideas.

American Sentinel’s doctorate in nursing education is intentionally designed to develop the six key competencies most needed by today’s nursing education leaders:
-leadership
-finance and fund development
-new models of curriculum development and delivery
-strategic planning
-education policy
-education research

These competencies vary greatly from those taught in traditional Ph.D. or Ed.D. programs.

“Our program is geared towards educating leaders in nursing education. It is not a research degree like the Ph.D.; rather it is a practice degree for the discipline of nursing. And while an Ed.D. focuses on education, it is not specific to nursing education practitioners, which requires very different nuances,” explains Dr. Garner.

The roles of nursing deans and education directors have expanded significantly over the endure several years, and traditional models do not prepare these professionals for leading others, developing tenacious range strategic planning, building alliances and executing joint ventures, or raising money.

“Our DNP gives leaders the tools they need in order to be effective in transforming nursing education,” adds Dr. Garner.

Jennifer Lucy, MEd, BSN, RN, has enrolled in the program’s first cohort starting July 9, 2012.

Lucy had been researching doctorate of nursing programs for a long time, but had never found a program that offered a focus on nursing education that also addressed applicability to practice.

“The Ph.D.’s I found were too research-based and the nursing leadership programs really did not interest me because my passion is the education of our future nurses,” says Lucy. “I believe that as leaders within the field of academic nursing, the faculty in American Sentinel’s DNP Educational Leadership program tinning guide and nurture me to become a better educator by mentoring me at a high level.”

American Sentinel University’s two-year DNP Educational Leadership leverages a learner-centered program and features just two 10-day residencies, a flexible online learning format, eight-week-long courses with two-week breaking in between and a bridge program for those nurses with non-nursing Master’s degrees.

The 42-credit program is open to nurse educators who have at least three years of nursing education leadership experience and a Master’s degree of any kind. (Nurse educators with a master’s in areas other than nursing will need to take two MSN bridge coursed prior to starting this DNP.) No GRE or other placement testing is required. The next cohorts begin on July 9, 2012 and October 22, 2012.

“Busy nurse educators will not only find our program livable and manageable, but fulfilling and enjoyable. Plus, they will acquire specialized leadership credentials, making them all the more valuable in their mission to create and train future generations of nurses,” says Dr. Garner.

Andrew Hughes has termed the next three years as “The Golden Age of Motorhome Hire”

London, UK (PRWEB UK) 11 April 2012

The appeal of a motorhome is the freedom and the flexibility to choose your own holiday with your particular pastime, be it mountain bicycling, canoeing, walking, or just taking in the scenery.

There was much talk about ‘The Golden Age of Motorhome Hire’ at the Motorhome, Caravan and Camping Show in London in February 2012. Andrew Hughes of Cambridge based motorhome hire company Motorholme said:

“We termed right now as the beginning of ‘The Golden Age of Motorhome Hire’ kicking off with the Euro 2012 UEFA Finals, which are in Poland and the Ukraine where you can use a motorhome to get to the different venues and games. Followed up nicely by the Olympics, which is in August, and then the Paralympics that runs on into September.”

There is certainly a trend these days towards keeping your accommodation versatile for these events with multiple venues and a motorhome is an ideal solution.

In addition to the above there is also a growing trend for people just wanting to get back to camping, but in a more luxurious way. Nick Lomas from ‘The Caravan Club’ said:

“In the finally ten years our membership alone has gone up by about 50,000 households which means 100,000 new people coming into the pastime, so it definitely is growing. Motorhoming in particular is the biggest growing sector and that used to be about 20% of our membership and for new members now it’s about 30%, so it’s definitely the sector that’s seeing a growth at this current time…lotted of people that previously thought about owning a home abroad are now thinking about motorhomes as a way to tour all over the UK and all over Europe as well.”

Nick’s words are so true, there are still plenty of people whose idea of getting away from it all is to hire a motorhome, put it on a cheap ferry to France and head off into Europe. At the Motorhome, Caravan and Camping Show, artist and relentless motorhomer Susan Clements said:

“Whether it’s your first motorhome trip abroad or you are an experienced motorhomer in Europe, the lure of the French Riviera as a holiday destination is undeniable. The resorts of Nice, Antibes and Cannes offer a wide variety of beautiful beaches to suit all tastes, a mild climate with many hours of sunshine plus fabulous food and wine. Yes, you can spend a lot of money in the south of France if you want to, but with a motorhome you don’t need to! If you can travel before the high season period you will be able to take advantage of lower prices on the campsites and avoid some of the crowds.”

So it does seem that this is indeed The Golden Age of Motorhome Hire and for those who fancy using a motorhome whenever they like, Andrew Hughes of Motorholme has come up with a new idea called ‘Options’, where he reveals that:

“You’ll soon know how to enjoy a brand new motorhome from less than £3.55 per day!”.

The scheme will be unveiled at their open day on the 28th April 2012 and seems to be a closely guarded secret. But you can apply for the information in the form of a free downloadable guide. Andrew tell:

“Motorhome Options has been created by the hire experts – and applies whether you’re thinking about buying a motorhome, never thought you could afford one, or even if you don’t have room on your driveway! You’ll find the free guide contains a wealth of information about how to enjoy a brand new motorhome without any of the hassle. No finance, credit checks or deposit, just one low, fixed monthly fee – it couldn’t be easier or cheaper to enjoy a brand new motorhome!”

According to the American Bankruptcy Institute, the number of Texas non-business bankruptcies in 2011 (48,442) reflected a 10.5% decrease vs. 2010, lower than the 11.3% rate of decline in total U.S. 2011 non-business bankruptcies. Julia Gibbons, chair of the Judicial Conference of the United States, which manages 400 federal courts, indicated that “…declining consumer debt levels and a pause in home foreclosures contributed to the recent decline in filings.” Her projections assume consumer debt levels will begin to climb again, resulting in more bankruptcies in 2013. In addition, if home foreclosures increase, then bankruptcies will grow at an even faster pace than the taken projected for 2013.

“We are very proud of our participation at the NACBA San Antonio conference, which is geared towards bankruptcy attorneys and other bankruptcy professionals from all across the U.S.,” said Robert A. Williams, Executive Director of the National Financial Literacy Foundation, Inc., which provides the pre-filing bankruptcy counseling course required before declaring bankruptcy. “Because we are EOUST-approved in all U.S. judicial districts for bankruptcy certificate delivery, our presence at this national conference is an ideal forum for us.”

Paul J. Simino, Founder and CEO of Financial Education Services, Inc., which offers the post-filing personal financial management course, observes that “Although the number of consumer bankruptcies has declined over the past year, the volume of bankruptcies still remains enormous. The success of BKClass.com strategic relationship is due to our delivery of extraordinary quality service and satisfaction to attorneys and clients alike. Our goal at NACBA is to encourage the legal community to experience how BKClass.com can help them achieve greater growth in retained bankruptcy clients through higher course completions.”

Answer by Jason
The idea is to add another level of security before granting access to your credit report. Someone could very easily know what your SSN is…but if they need info like this, it makes it that much harder for an unauthorized person to gain access. Simply answer None of the Above, and move along…If you AREN’T granted access answering None of the Above, then you may have a reason to worry…as it may mean that someone has opened a mortgage in your name.
