So informative
Learning CRE is power.
It's great! Learned quite a lot in the short two-hour window! Recommend for anyone looking to get into the industry!
I had a practical understanding of Valuation after going through some practical questions and solving them with Cedric Bobo and my group.
I currently only have access to one tab, so I cannot necessarily rate all there is on the website. I do like the idea of a video introduction though; it appeases to my background in film before I explored finance and accounting.
The facilitator was wonderful. Explained everything so well and gave examples.
What an insightful session! Cedric shares valuable knowledge and essential strategies to succeed in the real estate industry. Additionally, he takes time to deliver insightful answers to questions from participants and ensures that each of us understands these CRE concepts before proceeding to next topics.
This experience for me was one the most educational programs that I have attended, the thing that I loved the most was Cedric being patient and accepting questions. This program felt really welcoming at the same time, very educational. I am eager to join more of the programs to learn one of the industry's best.
Overall, I had a fantastic experience and truly enjoyed every aspect of it. Everything was well-organized, engaging, and insightful. However, if there’s one aspect that I believe could be improved, it would be the duration of the breakout rooms. While they were incredibly valuable for collaboration and discussion, I found them to be a bit too short. A slightly longer breakout session would have allowed us to not only work through the questions more thoroughly but also foster stronger connections with our peers. Since we were primarily focused on completing the tasks within the limited time, we didn’t have the opportunity to engage in deeper conversations or build rapport with our group members. Having more time would have made the experience even more enriching by enabling a balance between structured discussions and meaningful interactions. That said, aside from this minor limitation, the overall experience was phenomenal, and I truly appreciated the opportunity to participate!
I enjoyed my first session with this program overall in terms of interaction and learning.
I liked the content of the education.
