The INREV Academy is setting the educational standards for the industry.
INREV, Henley Business School and Maastricht University have come together to offer the INREV Academy Certificate in European Non-Listed Real Estate Investment. Non-listed real estate professionals who wish to take their studies further can sign up as a Certificate holder and obtain an exemption towards the Henley Business School MSc in Real Estate Investment and Finance.
The INREV Academy Certificate will be issued by Henley Business School (University of Reading) and Maastricht University to students who attend five of the relevant existing INREV Academy training courses and successfully pass an assessment in the form of a written report.
To obtain the Certificate, participants will need to enrol in one of the two curricula (learning paths): Portfolio Management or Corporate Finance. Each curriculum consists of three mandatory courses and two elective courses that may be chosen from any of our offerings.
The INREV Academy conducts over 25 expert-led courses each year. The courses are available in a variety of formats, from classroom learning to online Zoom sessions, so you can access expert-led training from anywhere in Europe.
Kindly note that courses offered in the eLearning format (INREV Foundation Course, ESG Essentials and Real Estate Essentials: Unlocking Best Practices) are excluded from the INREV Academy Certificate programme.
A participant who decides to obtain certificates for both the Corporate Finance and Portfolio Management curricula will need to attend a total of 10 courses, as no course can contribute towards both curricula.
Annual curriculum review
The Certificate is supervised by a Certificate Board, comprising representatives from INREV, Henley Business School and Maastricht University, to ensure the education programme is regularly monitored and assessed. Every year the Certificate Board will meet to discuss and consider any potential changes or updates to the Certificate programme. An updated Corporate Finance track was launched in early 2023.
Assessment
After completing the five courses, each participant must take an assessment in the form of a written report within three months.
Henley Business School and Maastricht University will assess the written report and provide feedback within a month of receiving it.
In order to obtain the Certificate, participants must achieve a pass mark in the assessment. If they fail the assessment in the first instance, it may be re-taken within two months.
Attendees will be expected to analyse a case study using real data, showing their ability to combine the application of notions and analytical/qualitative tools to solve a real problem.
