PEER TO PEER WORKSHOPS
“A building is only as strong as the foundation on which it rests”
Peer to Peer Workshops are structured as small educational sessions with attendance capped to facilitate an interactive classroom-like experience. Unlike other courses, these workshops are taught from the perspective of someone who remembers ‘what it’s like not to know’, with the stated intention of helping fellow YLGers better understand different segments of the real estate industry so that they may further strengthen their understanding of how our dynamic business functions.
From Entitlements to Valuation, from Negotiating Leases to Public Speaking, we’ll teach you everything from the ‘basics’ to the ‘tricks of the trade’ Peer to Peer Workshops will help their participants be better rounded real estate professionals resulting in enhanced professional knowledge and personal skills.
