Sapoa Course World Class
An article in Business Day draws attention to commercial property association, Sapoa and its flagship property development course, which attracted the highest number of international delegates in its history. This merely goes to show how the reputation of the program's quality is spreading beyond South Africa’s borders.
The property management program deals specifically with finance, valuation, property law, negotiation, investment, development and marketing, all in the context of property. The course is run jointly by Sapoa and the University of Cape Town’s Graduate School of Business and is an intensive program run over a two week period aimed at sharpening skills across a wide range of property disciplines.
According to Sapoa CEO, Neil Gopal, more than half of the applicants who apply each year are turned away. This year, there were 131 applications in total, of which just 64 were accepted. There are 8 international delegates that form part of this year’s program delegates, which is the highest number since the course was first offered in South Africa.
The program has lectures that cover a broad range of topics related to property, including economics and strategic thinking, town planning and valuation, marketing and property management. Instructors for the course are selected from the faculty at UCT’s Graduate School of Business, as well as a pool of specialists and professionals who are members of Sapoa.
