The Royal Institution of Chartered Surveyors (RICS) and the Confederation of Real Estate Developers? Associations of India are collaborating on a joint initiative to promote skill development in the construction and real-estate business. This has made available a wide range of RICS professional education programmes available for CREDAI members.

The ?RICS-CREDAI Skills Development Initiative?, says the press statement, will ?address the education and training needs of professionals engaged in the real estate and construction sector in the country.? A number of RICS education programs are now available under this joint initiative, at foundation or advanced levels, to suit professionals with different skill levels. Enrolments will begin from October 15.

The duration of these programs ranges from two weeks to 6 months and will be through different formats including distance learning, workshops or and combinations of both. Some of these have been developed and will be conducted in partnership with other academic institutions. ?These courses have been structured primarily for working professionals and are economically priced for people engaged across all levels of the property lifecycle to up-skill and meet the challenges of an ever changing and dynamic sector,? says the press statement.

The key areas the programmes will cover are construction project management, quantity survey, building inspection and quality control, facilities management, real estate and finance and valuations. On completion of the programmes, participants will receive certificates from RICS. The first batch of workshops will be held in Delhi, Mumbai, Bangalore, Ahmedabad and other metro cities (that?ll depend on the number of enrolments).
