License Delivery Education Program
Purpose
To offer CCIM Institute courses in markets throughout the United States and Canada, not served by the CCIM Institute on a direct delivery basis. Courses will be licensed to viable sponsoring organizations once they have completed the application/approval process and have met certain guidelines and criteria. CCIM Institute reserves the right to deny a licensed course request where it deems that it is not in the best interest of the Institute.
We will ensure your success by guiding and assisting you through the entire process of course delivery, from the planning stage through the completion of the course. If you have any questions, please call Charmaine Griffin, Course Delivery Manager, at 312-321-4492, or e-mail cgriffin@cciminstitute.com.
