The program started 10 years ago in response to an industry-wide need for qualified candidates to fill available positions. Today TAAEF is focused on supporting formalized training in residential property management (RPM) at all academic levels in higher education and on attracting disciplined talent to our industry, particularly from the military sector. The Foundation’s flagship program at the University of North Texas in Denton includes a fully funded, industry-sponsored permanently endowed professorship at UNT to attract and educate top talent that could enter the profession at – or quickly advance to – the middle management or executive ranks in the industry.
TAAEF has also recently provided support for the new University of Houston Graduate Real Estate Program and has been instrumental in the development of a multifamily curriculum. TAAEF also works with community colleges throughout the state to have leasing and maintenance programs available. Austin Community College is the latest to offer a new leasing course.
Overarching program objectives include:
- Supporting the rental housing industry with formal training offerings in residential property management for current and prospective employees. Programs are offered at Texas universities, colleges and community colleges.
- Promoting careers and advancement opportunities in the rental housing industry.
- Identify and consider funding for industry education and career-oriented resources benefiting rental housing owners and operators.
In addition to its collegiate partnerships, TAAEF also works diligently to raise awareness of the multifamily industry’s many career offerings.
As part of that effort, TAA partnered with Time Warner Cable and ApartmentCareers.com to create “Home Sweet Home: Career Opportunities in the Apartment Industry,” a short 15-minute video educating high school students about opportunities available in the rental housing industry.
Yardi is a supporter of TAAEF’s efforts and has donated scholarship dollars in the amount of $50,000 to support the development of tomorrow’s multifamily professionals.
