冈本视频 Real Estate Council (CREC) Fireside Chat: CREC gathered virtually in early 2021.

About the 冈本视频 Real Estate Council (CREC)

The 冈本视频 Real Estate Council (CREC) enables 冈本视频 alumni, students, parents, faculty, and staff to develop and maintain relationships with other 冈本视频 community members who are interested or active in the real estate industry. The CREC serves as a lifelong resource that promotes personal fulfillment and professional development.
 

Background

In March 2011, alumni created a LinkedIn group of 冈本视频 alumni working in the commercial real estate business. We named the group the 冈本视频 Real Estate Council. By 2013, we organized and formed what would become the first of 冈本视频鈥檚 Professional Networks.

冈本视频 created the Professional Network program in 2014 to help alumni and students pursue their career ambitions and make the most of the University鈥檚 powerful alumni network.

 

Events

CREC sponsors events that help to connect alumni with one another, with students, or both. CREC events:

  • Are held off-campus, on-campus, and virtually.
  • Sometimes feature more than one 冈本视频 Professional Network around a common topic.
  • Draw on themes suggested by volunteers, and campus leadership 鈥 as well as current events and trends.
  • Often take campus priorities into consideration.

Student Life and Career Path Development Programs

CREC works closely with the on-campus, student-led Real Estate Club while also sponsoring access to the Urban Land Institute (ULI) Foundations of Real Estate Program (FoRE), five module, 30-hour education program and certification and   LinkedIn 鈥淩ock Your Profile鈥 workshops in partnership with Career Services.

Many other student-facing CREC programs are held during on-campus events or during student trips. Through these programs, students are able to meet with alumni in the real estate industry for hands-on learning opportunities. Some examples include:

  • "All Roads Lead to Real Estate" 鈥 Annual September Kick-off event
  • Homecoming networking events
  • SophoMORE Connections
  • NYC Student Immersion Trip and CREC Winter Social event
  • Multiple career panel programs 鈥 over course of the year
