This month we celebrate the success of nine amazing WE graduates who have also graduated from the R.E.N.E.W, a property management paid training program offered in partnership with the Institute of Real Estate Management Sacramento Valley Chapter (IREM Sacramento)! These women showed hard work and dedication which has paid off as they are now certified property managers. We can’t wait to see the incredible impact they will make in the industry. Here’s to new beginnings and endless opportunities!

 Ding, ding, ding! The sweet sound of success is echoing for our amazing Session 96 student, Angelique, who has just landed a fantastic job! After years of navigating the tough waters of unemployment, Angelique has been offered a rewarding position as a Paralegal Secretary, complete with full benefits. She has a bright future ahead—congratulations, Angelique!
