RE/MAX Celebrates 20 Years of Industry-Leading Education
RE/MAX University® Continuously Raises the Bar for Great Training
DENVER – November 7, 2014 – (RealEstateRama) — The industry-leading education platform for RE/MAX Affiliates, now known as RE/MAX University (RU), celebrates 20 years of providing top-notch training that can be traced back to the introduction of the RE/MAX Satellite Network (RSN). RSN launched Nov. 1, 1994 and evolved into a learning tool that has been recognized more than 150 times by training industry experts.
“Training is an integral part of any successful business and it has been our long-time objective to offer Affiliates the best educational opportunities we can.” says Mike Ryan, RE/MAX, LLC, Executive Vice President. “It’s hard to believe that we have been at this for 20 years. Our aim is to continuously raise the bar for ourselves and the rest of the real estate industry by providing excellent training.”
From the very beginning, RSN developed programming to help brokers gain an upper hand in their markets with courses in technology, recruiting and retention, professional designations, sales, business management and more. Now RU offers information on all the same subjects and more, but in up-to-date, easy-access formats. RU highlights include:
· On-demand programming available 24/7 via internet
· A video library with more than 1,000 titles on a variety of subjects
· Customized education with RU TRAX that involves both online and off-line engagement
· Webinars and live educational events
· Specific management education
In September, RU was recognized alongside McDonald’s, LinkedIn and PepsiCo by the Brandon Hall Group with a Bronze Medal in the Best Custom Content Category. In July, RU accepted 13 Silver and Bronze Telly Awards while competing among more than 12,000 entries. Earlier this year, RU was named by Training magazine for the third consecutive year as one of the best among corporate-sponsored training programs, capturing a place on the 2014 Top 125 list.
