Yardi Aspire Adds New Real Estate Energy Management Training Created by IREM

Online
training courses cover energy management and sustainability strategies for
property managers

SANTA BARBARA, Calif., Sept. 21,
2020 – Yardi® Aspire
users can access learning content focused on energy with a new set of courses created
by the Institute of Real Estate Management
(IREM).

The new, innovative content from
IREM bolsters property management strategies for energy management and other
sustainability initiatives. The five courses offer more than six and a half
hours of total learning time.

Aspire users who take advantage of
the immersive courses will learn how to track and measure energy consumption benchmark
data, how energy conservation can enhance property values, how to identify retrofit
opportunities and how to calculate the value of retrofit efforts.

“As recipients of Yardi’s Energy Efficiency Grant for the past six years, we remain committed to advancing sustainability in real estate. Together with Yardi, we are able to lead in sustainable real estate by leveraging our experience, research and analysis of property management, and these courses are part of that effort. We’re proud of the content we’ve created and excited to share them with the real estate community,” says Todd Feist, senior content developer at IREM.

Yardi helped to support the
development of IREM’s training programs with funding through its ongoing Energy
Efficiency Grant program, which aims to help reduce energy use in commercial,
residential and mixed-use properties through education and technology.

“These courses offer new content
that will be valuable for our clients and the real estate industry. They’ll
also further Yardi’s corporate effort to reduce our industry’s impact on the
environment. We expect users will be able to use these insights to measure and
achieve the benefits of retrofitting residential, office and commercial
properties for energy efficiency,” said Akshai Rao, Yardi vice president overseeing
energy and procurement.

Aspire is Yardi’s comprehensive
learning management solution that offers users online coursework, live events
and webinars, document resource libraries, and management tools to oversee
staff development training and track human resources data.

Yardi Aspire clients subscribing at
the Premier and Plus levels can log on today to assign the new classes to their
team of users. If you are a Yardi client but not yet a Yardi Aspire user, you
