About our courses
Our training portfolio is based around RICS’ Competency Frameworks. These competencies define the knowledge, skills and experience required to become an RICS professional. To support individuals looking to become RICS qualified or those who wish to learn the fundamental skills required of a particular profession,
we’ve introduced new online programmes which comprehensively cover the key competencies they will need.
An important benefit of training people in this way is that they are not only more likely to gain the ability to undertake tasks and processes to the highest of standards within their chosen specialism, but also offer greater awareness and capability to perform within multi-disciplinary project teams and businesses.
This approach also underpins many aspects of the training we offer to professionals looking to progress their career. It can allow them to move into different areas, as well ensuring RICS professionals are able to maintain
their competence through CPD and remain up-to-date and compliant with the very latest standards, legislation and industry best practice.
Coming in 2020 are exciting new programmes designed to help professionals develop leadership capabilities both within specific sectors and across the entire real estate asset life cycle.
Our courses can be broadly categorised as given below –
· Construction courses: Face-to-face and online learning
· Real estate courses: Face-to-face and online learning
· Business skills courses: Face-to-face and online learning
· APC courses: Face-to-face and online learning
