Thirty Capital launches academy to train CRE professionals

The academy is accepting applications for its fall semester through August 15 for its fall semester

Thirty Capital, a private equity and commercial real estate data management firm, launched The Academy of CRE Finance & Innovation on 9th June, according to a press release. It is accepting applications for its fall semester through August 15, with the new semester starting on September 15.

The courses in the program will include classes and certifications for analysts, students and new graduates during the spring and fall semesters. Topics comprise economics, business and CRE programs, the release says.

“Capital markets and the use of data analytics are changing at an incredible pace. It’s imperative we train practitioners at the intersection of these hyper-technical skills in CRE and finance,” said Robert J. Finlay, Founder and CEO of Thirty Capital, in the release. The academy will cater to such skills, he added.

The digital certification courses are for eight to 10 weeks each, focus on skill-building and include “immersive” live weekly classes with experts and CRE executives from the industry. The statement mentions snippets from videos, brochures and applications with details about the courses that can be accessed online.

The academy was formed by Finlay as a way to retrain new analysts and bridge the gap between classroom knowledge and the skills needed to be a CRE professional and reach higher job roles, the release adds. 

Expert instructors include Brett Williams, president of CJC Worldwide Technologies; Allison Bradshaw, partner at LEM Capital; Gregg Gerken, EVP of TD Bank Group and head of CRE at TD Bank, among many others.

Additional instructors from Thirty Capital include Jason Kelley, CFO; Kevin Swill, CEO; Jeff Lee, Managing Director and Brian Lanehart, CTO.

Along with the courses, the firm is launching Academy Connect, a networking platform that will be available to current and graduated students. Students can also connect with executives for mentorship and career development at events hosted by Thirty Capital.

“Executives and professionals in CRE teach our classes, and the coursework is directly related to challenges faced in any CRE organization,” said Kevin Swill, CEO of Thirty Capital Financial, in the statement.
