The honor was awarded to recognize their collaboration on the Freddie Mac CreditSmart Coach program, a financial capability training program provided free of charge to empower underserved communities.
The award represents a landmark achievement for AllenComm. Founded in 1994, the Summit International Creative Awards honor the best web, design, video, advertising, interactive, mobile, and social marketing from creative agencies worldwide. The Summit Creative Award is a sought-after confirmation of excellence among creative firms. This year there were more than 3,400 creative submissions from 19 countries across 62 categories.
Freddie Mac's CreditSmart first launched more than two decades ago to teach the financial literacy skills needed to improve consumer credit. To date, Freddie Mac has trained more than 5 million consumers via CreditSmart Essentials, and tens of thousands of industry professionals have been trained as facilitators via CreditSmart Coach.
In partnership with AllenComm, Freddie Mac reimagined and updated the program, adding elements to enhance learning via greater engagement and program effectiveness for both industry professionals and consumers.
Newly enhanced features include digital elements for a blended learning solution using a custom Learning Management System with an online experience featuring self-paced eLearning, live (webinar) master classes with trainers, interactive Q&A sessions with master trainers, discussion boards, homework, and a final exam. The courses are Americans with Disabilities Act accessible and designed to be used in diverse communities across the United States.
