Letting agents offered white label training and qualifications

Online training and qualifications provider The Able Agent is launching a new white label training platform.

The ‘In-House by the Able Agent’ service enables letting agents to build training via access to all Able Agent training modules covering areas including qualifications, induction and expert legal/compliance content, as well as adding their own bespoke and branded course collateral.

Charlotte Jeffrey-Campbell, co-founder and director of The Able Agent, says: “It comes after many months of development, and working closely with industry experts to gauge valid feedback on the type of training they would like to deliver. The platform should be particularly compelling for larger agencies seeking to add in their own branded course content, in order to create a high-quality and blended mixture of learning for their staff. 

“We are keen for it to be the underpinning training resource for the industry. Training is firmly on the agenda when it comes to raising industry standards, and I believe it should now be part of the daily flow of business rather than time out of the office or attending set webinars. 

“Its focus should be centred around upskilling agents to support staff recruitment and retention, which is currently a huge issue for the industry.  We want to empower agents to grow their business by having expert teams, supported by relevant industry and company training.”

Lee Daymond, technical director at The Able Agent, adds: “The platform allows business owners to design bespoke training in a simple-to-use format, using their own branding. They are able to select the most relevant areas to them, and – at the same time – be reassured that the basics are already well covered. We are currently in discussions with a number of agents for go live projects in the coming weeks.”

The Able Agent team is also in discussions with industry suppliers keen to host their content on the new platform in order for it to be made accessible to a wider pool of agents, to improve product use and customer retention.
