No. The in-person Real Estate Development Leadership (REDL) certificate is a robust, experiential program best-suited for individuals with some exposure to the real estate development industry. While the competencies and topics addressed in both programs are similar, the extent to which instructors discuss topics, case studies, showcase guest-speakers, and tour real world sites in the REDL program is unparalleled.   

The online Real Estate Development Professional (REDP) certificate is perfect for aspiring or new real estate development professionals across Canada. It builds foundational knowledge, skills, and frameworks that participants can take with them as they establish a career in real estate development.

You can start with any course (except for Finance 2, which has a Finance 1 prerequisite).  

We recommend that certificate participants start with the core courses; this helps inform your learning for the elective courses.  

Each course spans approximately three weeks, which includes:  

  • Access to pre-read materials.  
  • Two in-class instructional days (8:30 am- 4:30 pm)* 
  • An in-person site visit (evening, depending on site restrictions)* 
  • A virtual final presentation session (4:00- 6:00 pm MT)*  

Instructional days are back-to-back except for finance courses, which have a week between the two in-person days. 

 *refer to the specific course page to confirm times as these may vary based on instructor and site project availability.  

  • Access to curated pre-read materials to help you make the most of your in-class time. 

  • Informal and formal networking opportunities, in peer discussions and lunch break. 

  • Expert industry insights from instructors and guest speakers. 

  • Current real-world projects, case studies, and lessons learned. 
  • A site visit to experience the realities of development in practice!
     
  • A group assignment and presentation that applies your course learning.  

Each course requires attendance and participation throughout the instructional days and experiential activities. The instructor provides feedback and assigns a pass/fail grade based on your contribution to a group assignment in each course. These assignments apply the in-class concepts to real world projects or scenarios. 

The REDL program is unique because it brings together professionals and leaders from a range of backgrounds, including instructors, guest-speakers, and industry leaders. In-class networking, mutual exchange of ideas, and group discussions are a critical source of value within this program. As a result, REDL participants must attend in-person.
