Vineet Nanda as FICCI Chairman who has worked on various white Papers along with JLL(knowledgepartner of FICCI) represented by Akash Bansal, Senior Director and India Lead were working on a white paper to be presented to State Governments to further regulate the industry. The idea being put in the White Paper was to regulate the transactions made in the real estate industry between channel partners and customers. Majority of the channel partners and their team members even those who are registered with RERA do not possess adequate knowledge of RERA. Nor they are well trained to handle the home/office buyers.
Real estate sector has matured and has become much more organized and transparent. As the sector matures, all the stakeholders also evolve and one of the key needs for the hour, therefore, is the upskilling of people involved in the sector.

Global
• To become a successful Real Estate Agent in Canada, One has to complete a series of Salesperson Licensing courses.
• Real estate agents and real estate brokers are required to be licensed when conducting real estate transactions in the United States and many other countries. Each state requires its own mandatory education to become eligible to receive a real estate license. This involves completing a pre-licensing education from an institution accredited by the state and passing an exam. Additionally, to maintain a real estate license, states require a continuing education program to be completed every 2-years
To address this gap, the Steller School of Real Estate is aimed at providing the new-age knowledge and skills to the young workforce aspiring to join the real estate industry and working professionals already in this high-growth industry.
Speaking on this initiative by the university, Dr. Sandeep Singh Kaura, Chancellor of university said, “RESEED will build a learning ecosystem which is in line with PM Modi’s vision for making India a skill capital of the world by providing global level skills to youth of India making them employable in domestic and overseas market. A highly acclaimed professionalteam is put into action to actualize this dream to shape into reality. We believe that the Stellers School of Real Estate will play a key role in shaping the future of the real estate industry and we are thrilled to be pioneer in this field.”
Mr. Vineet Nanda, Member of the Board of Management of the university, said, “Few people working in the unorganized real estate sphere bring a lot of disrepute to the industry. To revamp the image of the real estate industry, it is essential that the professionals working in the industry are equipped with knowledge of legal and government regulations, soft-skill development, digital and technical domains of the sector. The sales force should be well- groomed and proficient with language skills. RESEED course, curated by industry professionals, has been designed keeping in mind both practical and technical aspects, particularly in a RERA regulated environment. I’m sure that it will herald a new era of transparency and trust led sustainable growth of the real estate industry in India. This first of its kind course will give impetus to entrepreneurship and Hon’ble Prime Minister Modi’s Skill India Mission.”
Detailing the objective of the course from customers’ point of view, Mr. Akash Bansal, Senior Director & India Head – Strategic Consulting, JLL India said, “As Indians, one of our largest lifetime investments is always real estate . When small investments in a mutual fund, equities, or insurances are regulated and involve certified experts, then a lifetime, higher value investment in real estate, merits more attention and expertise. RESEED course will enable the brokers/channel partners to gain confidence and position themselves as elite certified professional in this category to help buyers / sellers professionally”
