Several trends uncovered in the survey explain why quick training implementation, particularly when it comes to onboarding, is such a high priority. Turnover has increased for most property roles, and fast onboarding is critical for retaining employees. Compliance risk is also up and is equally impacted by any delays in onboarding. Today's best eLearning expedites onboarding by providing bite-sized modules that can fit into tighter time frames versus traditional multi-day, in-person classroom onboarding. People expect faster training now because they can.

“Several trends uncovered in the survey explain why quick training implementation, particularly when it comes to onboarding, is such a high priority,” Dru Armstrong, CEO of Grace Hill, explained. “Turnover has increased for most property roles, and fast onboarding is critical for retaining employees. Compliance risk is also up and is equally impacted by any delays in onboarding.”
Armstrong continued, “The other reason that ease and speed of implementation is in such demand is actually a positive trend: improvements in technology and increasing technology use are leading to higher expectations. Today’s best eLearning expedites onboarding by providing bite-sized modules that can fit into tighter time frames versus traditional multi-day, in-person classroom onboarding. People expect faster training now because they can.”
Armstrong concluded, “The survey shows an impressive capacity among trainers to perform well within tight constraints. It also indicates the future success that is likely as property companies begin to overcome some of the training challenges the industry currently faces.”
The survey also includes information about salaries, bonus programs and bonus amounts, in addition to information about training budgets. 327 property management companies of various sizes participated in this year’s survey. The report helps those in the multifamily industry to refine and improve their companies’ training programs.
