The Academy’s Alumni group has welcomed over 80 graduates from its seven Industry Diploma programs, with more than 40 attending an inaugural Alumni event this month.
These graduates, who completed their diplomas between 2021 and 2023, are those who have successfully completed an expert course and passed an individual assessment, earning them an Industry Diploma.
The Alumni network serves as a professional network for graduates to connect, share insights and celebrate their achievements.
A highlight of the most recent Alumni event was a talk from guest speaker Richard Stacey, a seasoned professional with over 40 years of experience in the property sector.
Mr Stacey, who has supported the Academy for more than eight years as a facilitator and presenter, shared valuable career advice and life lessons. The event included a Q&A session with Mr Stacey, followed by questions from the audience.
Property Council Academy Director Kelly Jones said as the Academy’s Alumni community grows, these events promise to provide an enriching platform for graduates to stay connected and inspired.
“We’re thrilled to see the Academy Alumni community growing so rapidly. It’s a testament to the dedication and expertise of those who’ve completed our Industry Diplomas,” Ms Jones said.
“We want to create a vibrant, ongoing network for our graduates, where they can share experiences, learn from each other and continue to grow.
“The feedback from our last event has been incredible, and we’re excited to continue offering these gatherings, with more opportunities to hear from alumni and industry leaders”
Eliza Castieau, a Data Analyst at the Property Council and Alumni member said the Inaugural Property Council Academy Alumni event was a fantastic evening.
“Richard’s story and philosophy on life was so powerful & engaging – the energy in the room was amazing. Such a great opportunity for our Academy Alumni to get together with other property professionals who are passionate about continuing learning and forging relationships in the industry!”
