Award-Winning Matthews™ Training Program Boasts its Largest Summer Class to Date

Nashville, TN—Matthews Real Estate Investment Services™, a commercial real estate investment services and technology firm, welcomes its largest summer class to date with the onboarding of over 400 new hires and interns to the company’s robust eight-week Matthews™ University training program. The class is comprised of 164 new agent hires and 245 summer interns representing over 137 universities. While an overwhelming majority of national brokerage companies have pulled support, training, and new hires due to the current challenging deal environment, Matthews™ has been accelerating the growth of both their hiring of support personnel and new agent hires.

 

With 124 specially curated lessons and modules led by the Founder, Chairman & CEO Kyle Matthews, President David Harrington, in addition to executive leaders, top producers, and nationally recognized industry experts, these trainings cover all aspects of investment sales, leasing, and capital markets. In addition, the program focuses on professional and career development, with a unique emphasis on the psychology of what it takes to be successful in brokerage, as well as preparing them for the opportunities and challenges the career can often present in the first couple of years. In 2022, the American Business Awards recognized the program, “Matthews University™,” as a gold medal winner in the national sales training program category.

 

“Our training is unlike any program you will find in the industry,” Chief Operating Officer Duerk Brewer said. “We have continued to develop and improve the curriculum, which includes over 120 live lessons over a 60-day period from experts inside and outside the company. Our robust training program has as much to do with the rapid success of our agents as anything else we do at Matthews™.”

 

Matthews University™ kicked off June 5 and is hosted in 18 office locations across the U.S. The company’s continuous efforts in growing the program’s depth and attendance are a strategic move aimed at developing a robust talent pool to feed the company’s rapid growth.

 

“Developing homegrown talent has always been the foundation of the company, as well as the core driver of our growth,” CEO Kyle Matthews said. “Throughout the last year, we saw a massive influx of established talent in the brokerage industry reaching out to come be a part of the excitement that is Matthews™, introducing new talent to the industry by way of our training program is the key ingredient that makes this company special. Providing young men and women the introduction and opportunity to scale in commercial real estate is one of the best privileges of my life, and selfishly it brings me and my teammates great satisfaction to see the hundreds of agents since our founding go on to achieve success at Matthews™. I cannot wait to see the future legends of this historical class show us who they are over the next couple of years as we add 400 new members to the Matthews™ real estate family.”
