Formal Real Estate Education

[Don Konipol]

I was wondering how many RE investors have some FORMAL real estate education?  Anything from real estate broker licensing and continuing education classes; college classes or even a degree in real estate; CCIM or BOMA classes; open education online classes, etc.  with the amount of information available on line SOME investors can probably duplicate or even surpass formal education, and of course most successful investors are constantly learning.  So the question is (1) do you have a “formal” real estate education and if so what it is, and (2) are you continually adding real estate knowledge and if so how?

1. Bachelor in civil engineering

2. Masters in real estate finance

Always trying to continue to grow through groups I participate in, memberships like mindvalley, MIT open source.

While I believe education was 100% worth it, including my masters.

I worked 15 years for a top ENR GC and I worked with really intelligent people as well as for several other companies with really sharp people. So I was getting paid to do a job but also was able to learn a ton.
