Preferred Corporate Housing was one of only three temporary housing providers who exhibited its national furnished lodging services at last week’s Worldwide Employee Relocation Council - National Relocation Conference, and in addition to exhibiting, PCH team members participated in the highly regarded educational sessions presented by some of the relocation industry’s foremost experts. Education session topics included data protection best practices, talent management integration, flexible approaches to traditional relocation programs, women in leadership and an industry all-stars executive panel. At the close of this event, PCH reached its goal of earning 100 continuing education credits as a team during the 2014 fiscal year. “We set an education target last year as a way to quantify and measure our team’s engagement and investment in their personal success with PCH and their overall professional development,” said Jon Lanclos, CRP, CCHP - Founder of Preferred Corporate Housing. “We did not anticipate how quickly we would reach the goal.”
“Preferred Corporate Housing has always placed an emphasis on employee certifications/designations and the continuing education requirements needed to maintain them,” said Megan Margetusakis, CCHP - Director of Operations for PCH. “Any opportunities that allow our team members to grow professionally or to increase their knowledge-base of a particular industry ultimately improves the services we provide for our clients,” said Margetusakis.
PCH participates in education opportunities throughout various industries including project management, human resources/talent management, relocation and corporate housing. Several team members hold individual designations throughout these industries including Certified Relocation Professional (CRP) and Certified Corporate Housing Professional (CCHP). PCH’s participation and support of organizations like the Worldwide ERC provide its team members invaluable opportunities for connecting with existing clients, and most importantly, education opportunities that help expand expertise in the global mobility space. “We find tremendous value in learning from our clients, peers and fellow service providers,” said Samantha Elliott, CRP, CCHP - President of Preferred Corporate Housing. “Its not enough to just attend and sell our services at events like this. We invest the time and resources in attending each session to continuously increase our knowledge of what matters most to our clients,” said Elliott.
