There are still openings available for the third Graduate REALTOR® Institute (GRI) session of 2008 — GRI 104 — scheduled for Tuesday and Wednesday, June 3-4, at the Holiday Inn in Concord.

GRI is a REALTOR® designation given to those who have completed 96 hours of NAR-accredited coursework in seven educational modules within a five-year period. The designation helps increase income potential, develop self-confidence, sharpen real estate skills and build a strong referral network with classmates. Ultimately, it is a designation that helps bring REALTORS® to a level where they are recognized as leaders in the industry.

The subjects of GRI 104 include How to Meet, Greet and Connect; Secrets to Top Producers; Serving the Generations; and Sales and Marketing Training, and it is the third of the seven modules to be presented this year. The sessions will be taught by seasoned instructors Jim Pugliese ABR, CRB, GRI, SRES, CSP, Monika McGillicuddy GRI, SRES and Dave Millett.
