The online offering will feature six live-streamed sessions broadcast in high definition. Each interactive session will focus on harnessing the opportunities within commercial and asset finance, encouraging brokers to actively participate and ask questions in real time along the way.
Speakers will include members from PLAN Australia, as well as senior representatives from CBRE, ING DIRECT, Thinktank, ANZ and NAB, amongst others.
PLAN Australia CEO Anja Pannek commented: “Commercial lending and asset finance are two of the biggest growth areas in the market and we want to ensure our brokers have the right tools, access and support to tap into this opportunity.
“The launch of this year’s commercial and asset finance digital PD day builds on the success of our first two digital events and reaffirms our commitment to leading the industry through innovation.”
According to the aggregator, the digital format PD days are “ideal for brokers with their varying needs and preferences, and very limited time” and will run alongside other face-to-face training events.
Ms Pannek said: “We see our digital program as complementary to our broad range of face-to-face learning opportunities. One of brokers’ most precious commodities is time. Through our tailored online development opportunities, PLAN Australia brokers can select the sessions most relevant to them and use their time most efficiently.”
“Progress is at the heart of PLAN Australia and we will continue to evolve and innovate the way we deliver training services to our members,” she concluded.
