Course Overview

Guidance on the Telephone Consumer Protection Act

 

 

 

The Telephone Consumer Protection Act was enacted in 1991 to
address the growing number of telemarketing calls. The TCPA restricts the
making of telemarketing calls and the use of automatic telephone dialing
systems and artificial or prerecorded voice messages. The rules apply to common
carriers as well as to other marketers, including mortgage marketing. If you have telemarketers on staff, it would be wise
to make sure you are training them on the TCPA rules in the face of a CFPB
audit.
