Project Destined is an innovative program that empowers diverse students through immersive training in real estate investment and finance.
Mr Cedric was very attentive to questions and the students he was teaching. He made sure we were all following the class by asking us questions and answering ours. He has just set it all up in a way that anyone from any major can attend the class and fully understand it.
Great informative video on real estate investment strategies and how it would vary with certain industries
Very informative programs.
I loved the diversity of students in the program—many of us came in with varying levels of real estate knowledge, including starters like me. I appreciated how approachable and supportive the environment was, especially with the ability to ask questions. Both Mr. Bobo and the students provided clear, detailed explanations, often breaking concepts down further in the chat. I took plenty of notes, which shows how much I learned from this valuable experience!
Lots of excellent infromation, and really appreciated the discussion in breakrooms, and the small task we had to do to test what we learned.
Amazing experience, learning so much about the different investment risks and getting to know more people.
Enjoyed my first class. It allowed me to learn more about real estate from experienced professionals. Participation was encouraged, which is significant for understanding the material. Mr.Bobo did a great job facilitating our large class, and I look forward to the other workshops and to diving more into real estate.
I enjoyed the hands-on lesson and also the fact that the seminar was interactive so we would talk with Cedric Bobo and we could chip in our thoughts. This made the learning very effective
it was very informative
