IDS-National Institute of Real Estate Management (IDS-NIREM) has launched a 1-year distance education Post-Graduate Diploma Program in Real Estate Sales & Agency Management. This course has been planned in response to a consultative meeting with Indian real estate developers, multinational consultants, HFIs etc during which a common observation was the skill gap in the existing breed of real estate professionals. The problem was attributed to the lack of real estate focussed education & training programs in the country that can train students as per the needs of real estate sector. Participants were of the view that though there is abundance of management graduate, there is complete scarcity of people who have studied real estate management. In order to hire such professionals, most of the industry participants expressed willingness, during the meeting, to sponsor programs in real estate sales and agency management.

Therefore, this professional program was devised to provide the course participants with thorough knowledge and practical skills to plan and execute successful sales, marketing & leasing strategies for different types of properties and to plan & manage real estate agencies.

Historically, many individuals who work in real estate have acquired their skills on the job. However, as the business of real estate has become more complex in structure and more international in scope, the industry has recognised the need for specialised education in Real Estate. IDS-NIREM’s one-year distance learning Post Graduate Diploma Program in Real Estate Sales & Agency Management (PGD-RESAM), the first in the country, educates men and women in the full range of skills required of real estate professionals today. The course emphasis is on to provide knowledge and create practical skills to plan and execute successful sales, marketing & leasing strategies for different types of properties and to plan & manage real estate agencies.

The PGD-RESAM program, launched by IDS-NIREM, offers both, the fresh graduates who intend to pursue a career in real estate and those in the real estate profession, an unequaled educational growth and career advancement opportunity. To get further information, visit www.nirem.org
