Virtual classroom vs face-to-face

Our virtual classroom combines convenience and engagement, offering expert-led sessions you can join from anywhere. With real-time interaction and clear guidelines for smooth collaboration, you’ll enjoy a professional and dynamic learning experience without the need to travel. To enable the course to run smoothly, we ask that you mute your microphone unless asking a question and keep your camera on.

With our face-to-face courses you’ll benefit from the full lesson plan plus an increased level of interaction and group work. This is your chance to participate in group discussions with our expert trainer and other delegates on the course.

Location: Propertymark Westminster, 4th Floor, 5-8 The Sanctuary, London, SW1P 3JS

This course is also available as in-house training in your office for groups of five to 20 people. This is an extremely cost-effective way of training larger groups. You just need to provide the coffee and the venue and we'll provide our highly experienced trainers and the course materials.
