The courses are of a high academic standard. They are in a workshop format and are led by prominent experts; both commercial investment real estate theorists and practitioners from the USA and
Canada .
The instructors not only have wide practical experience but they are also excellent teachers who are members of the exclusive group of CCIM Institute Faculty.
The content of the course is constantly updated and improved so that the subject matter corresponds with the latest business practices and issues in the real estate market. The 200 hour education includes 4 core courses. Each course relates to different areas of commercial investment real estate analysis. They include financial analysis, market analysis, user decision analysis and investment analysis of commercial investment real estate. The first course CI 101 concerns the financial analysis of commercial investment real estate. The knowledge gained in this course is applied during the rest of the course and taking CI 101 is therefore a prerequisite for any subsequent courses. After completion of the first course, the order in which the other courses are completed is up to the individual student. All the courses and materials are translated into Polish.
Every course is concluded with a written examination. Those attending the core courses can apply for CCIM candidate status which involves many extra benefits as well as access to the information on the internal website of the CCIM Institute. In order to apply for the CCIM designation, one should finish all the core courses, prove required experience on the commercial investment real estate market and pass the comprehensive exam which includes both theoretical and practical knowledge.

‘Up to now, on the real estate market, there have been experts from three professions: property managers, real estate agents/brokers and appraisers.
This course integrates these three professions into one: the commercial investment real estate market expert. The course includes the knowledge of these three specialities, with some extras.I can’t imagine how serious transactions can be made on the commercial investment real estate market participation of those experts. I am a property manager and many things that I found out here on the course are new to me. This knowledge is a must and the analysis tools used by CCIM's are unique.’
/
Lech Kowalewski , Property Management, Ząbki/
'I think, the CCIM courses are an important step on the way to excellence
in the real estate profession’ /

‘The CCIM courses present in an orderly way a lot of information and also enable one to familiarize oneself with previously unknown market principles that are important for proper investment on the real estate market.
After the course, guesswork in investment analysis and evaluation is a thing of the past‘
