A total of 20 employees from Well Born Real Estate Management Limited and Hang Yick Properties Management Limited, both subsidiaries of Henderson Land Development Company Limited, completed the Professional Certificate in Property and Asset Management (I) and (II) courses. The courses are recognised by PMSA as “Specified academic qualifications in property management considered equivalent to a degree (for Property Management Practitioner (Tier 1) Licence)”. The event marked the success of a corporate training programme for Well Born and Hang Yick, which underscores Henderson Land Group Property Management Department’s commitment to staff development and talent cultivation within the industry.
