About this Event
UPSKILLING FOR COMMERCIAL PROPERTY MANAGERS
A Full-Day Practical Workshop for Regional Property Professionals
Commercial property management is something many people step into long before they’re given structured training to support it. One day it’s a handful of commercial properties in a mixed portfolio, the next you’re managing leases, legislation, outgoings, rent reviews, ESM, insurance, options and make-good obligations… all at once.
This workshop brings clarity to that complexity.
Delivered by Wendy Thomson (Australian Academy of Property) and Sangeeta Thaker (Property Law Academy), this full-day, in-person workshop distils commercial property management into its essential foundations: clarity, confidence and control.
Wendy and Sangeeta combine deep, hands-on operational experience with specialist legal expertise. Participants are guided through real-world scenarios and practical frameworks that help them interpret leases, understand obligations, anticipate risk, and communicate with authority. The focus is on what actually happens in practice not theory for theory’s sake.
Designed specifically for regional practitioners, this workshop provides structure, guidance and real-world examples to help commercial property managers build capability, reduce uncertainty and achieve stronger outcomes for both landlords and tenants.
What You’ll Gain
- Practical tools & workflows you can apply immediately
- Clearer understanding of leases, legislation & risk areas
- Greater confidence managing landlords, tenants & issues as they arise
- Exposure to real scenarios drawn from active commercial portfolios
- Opportunity to connect with peers facing similar regional challenges
Who This Workshop Is For
This workshop is built for anyone working in or around commercial property in regional markets, including:
- Residential Property Managers
- Commercial Property Managers
- Agency Principals & Directors
- Support Staff & Future PMs
- Sales & Leasing Agents
- Investors & In-House Managers
Whether you’re stepping into commercial for the first time or tightening up an established role, this is a “start here → level up → operate with confidence” workshop.
