Overview
About the program
For staff in property companies, developers and facilities departments. You study how property is valued, leased and operated, and how buildings are kept safe and efficient.
The Real Estate and Facilities Management program is designed for people who already work in the field. It covers real estate principles, property valuation, leasing and property law, facilities operations and maintenance, building services and energy, and ends with property finance and investment.
Like every Madison program, it is built for working adults. Courses you already master through your work are tested and recorded with a grade; the rest you study online, at your own pace, with tasks carried out in your own workplace.
In preparation. This program is not open for enrollment yet. It opens when its curriculum and courses are in place on the learning platform.
