“The Emerging leader’s programme connected me with an incredible mentor and group of peers in the property and construction industry. I was able to learn more than I ever expected to from the experience. We built a real friendship through the mentoring programme and I still catch up with my mentor every month, even after the programme has ended. Our cohort of Emerging Leaders all still stay in contact and catch up to discuss industry trends and our careers on a quarterly basis.”

"I have attended three Property Council seminars since joining and found them all highly informative and useful. You’re in a room with like-minded people, and there is a lot of interaction between the class and the speakers. The seminars are an efficient way for me to acquire new skills and are also great for networking."

"The Introduction to Retail Fundamentals course by DevelopU was such a great learning experience. I loved how the sessions covered everything from retail leasing, centre management and marketing, to asset management and investment—always explained in a way that was easy to follow. The real-world examples really brought it all to life, and the facilitators were friendly, engaging, and clearly knew their stuff. I’d definitely recommend this course to anyone wanting a solid, practical grasp of the retail property world."
