- RealtyU®, the largest network of real estate schools and
colleges providing education in the real estate industry, will
hold its mid-year conference in Myrtle Beach, SC this coming
weekend. The conference will focus on new courses, marketing
and school growth as RealtyU® finds itself in the midst
of major national expansion.
"Our focus is on uniting and integrating our extensive
suite of services and real estate courses so that schools
can more effectively interface with their customer base; the
real estate agents," says Stefan Swanepoel, CEO of RealtyU®.
"At the present time our schools are experiencing several
areas of strong growth," he says, "including surge
in licensing, increased online education, demand for the new
seller agency course and enquiries regarding grants for new
licensees entering the industry."
This year the RealtyU® mid-year conference will include
a training and marketing session devoted to two hot courses
launched earlier this year on Seller Agency and Luxury Homes.
The Accredited Luxury Home Specialist course satisfies the
requirements for the ALHS designation offered by the Luxury
Home Council. While the Seller Representative Specialist course
meets the requirements for the Certified Seller's Agent (CSA)
designation offered by the Seller Agency Council (CSA). Both
of these courses are offered exclusively through RealtyU®
Schools.
"The RealtyU® mid-year conference, which is held
back-to-back in association with the Real Estate Educators
Association convention (REEA), collectively creates the most
unique opportunity for school owners and real estate instructors
to tap into the largest brain trust and most extensive selection
of resources in the real estate education industry in one
spot," said Tom Mitchell, COO of RealtyU®. "REEA
is the leading Association for real estate educators and most,
if not all the RealtyU® school owners, are REEA members,"
he concluded.
This conference is more important that a normal REALTOR®
or real estate sales associate convention as it is school
owners and instructors formulate the strategies that keep
them current with the changes impacting the courses they teach
and with the resources facilitating delivery of those courses.
Remember, it is their knowledge, skill, experience and expertise
that in the end analysis becomes the building blocks of what
is taught to the real estate industry at large and the industry
leaders of tomorrow.
