Good Online Real Estate Development Courses/Project Management Courses?
Hi all,

Currently working for a construction company and one day want to transition into development. Any online courses that anyone can recommend? Just trying to make good use of my extra time.

It's much more what is Dev and how to Dev. \n\nFor true project management check out PMI.

Did you feel it would give you the skillsets from a project management perspective to embark on your own project?\n\nYou are absolutely right about Cornell's financial investment, it's the one thing making me think twice about taking it. If I am not allowed to take individual courses from that program without enrolling in the whole thing, I may also look at NAIOP's Construction Management for Developer's course which I can take on-demand.", "replies": [{"id": "fqg07i7", "text": "I don't think I would do the Cornell cert. Just for PM knowledge. Unfortunately pm is out of my wheel house so can't really say what a good fast track is there. Maybe look into an MRED MS.RED program.
