High schoolers: Want to solve real-world problems and win prizes while doing it? Nareit’s partnership with NAF introduces students to the world of Real Estate Investment Trusts (REITs) through the KnoPro Challenge. It’s a great way to explore a high-paying career path in finance and real estate early on.
In today’s rapidly changing business world, REITs understand that building teams with different backgrounds, experiences, and viewpoints fosters fresh ideas, creates a competitive edge, and results in long-term success. However, an important question remains: How can REITs efficiently and effectively find and connect with new industry-ready talent?
Seeking to address this challenge, NAF—a national non-profit dedicated to career readiness education—has partnered with the Nareit Foundation. Together, they’re expanding opportunities and creating new pathways for high school students to learn about and work in the REIT industry.
Focusing on practical training and real-world learning, NAF is connecting students with career opportunities that they might not have known existed. Partnering with schools, businesses, and community leaders, the organization is making sure that every student has the chance to succeed and realize their full potential.
