Certification Courses

The Academy offers 8-week certification courses for first-year CRE financial analysts and data analysts in a fully digital learning environment. Our on-demand and live-facilitated courses feature expert executives in the CRE industry while delivering relevant and pragmatic skill-building experiences. ​


Experts in Residence

The Academy courses feature CRE industry experts from all sides of the ecosystem. We wouldn’t be able to offer such an immersive and engaging course experience without them, it’s a differentiator for our students and community. Here are some recent snippets from the Academy classroom.

 

“The featured experts were incredibly knowledgeable with deep industry experience. They brought the perfect combination of theory and practice to the classroom.”
