Keller Williams UK plans to train over 200 new estate agency franchisees – London Wallet

Keller Williams UK says that it is preparing to train ‘a new generation of real estate professionals’ with the launch of KW Academy – a new 90-day programme targeted at people wanting to enter the estate agency sector, with a view to operating as a self-employed agent under the KWUK brand.

The Academy, which launches on July 3rd will aim to train more than 200 students throughout 2023, and will provide delegates with the training, skills, and certifications to start and run their own estate agency franchise.

Students will commit to weekly online lectures and learning tasks which can be completed during evenings, allowing participants to continue full-time working while they take part.

Split into two ‘academies’, students in England will kick start their journey with a launch day in London’s Piccadilly, where they will meet network with existing Keller Williams agents. Students based in Scotland will attend a similar launch event in Glasgow.

Jessica Aryee, head of training and coaching at Keller Williams UK, commented: “The Keller Williams Academy is the ideal way for us to attract new talent to the industry; ambitious professionals who may be uninspired by their current role or undervalued by their current estate agency employer.

“We put the control back into the hands of our agents – and the academy will demonstrate the pathway to success. I’d highly recommend that anyone who’s interested read more about the programme and submit an application before the remaining places are snapped up.”
