Who is CPMD?
CPMD stands for the College of People Management and Development, a privately owned,
Propriety Limited Company, primarily meeting a spectrum of training needs of learners across
Southern Africa and internationally.
It is a dynamic company headed by Graeme Jay, a well-known educator, lecturer and academic. The
college is run from its head office in Norwood, Johannesburg, utilizing a complement of regular and other
lecturers to provide expertise.
The name CPMD encapsulates the diversity of the company's offering, and the nature of its clients.
Property is only one of the major subjects offered - others include finance, management, soft skills and
consumer education.
CPMD employs a number of subject matter and industry experts to deliver their programmes, and ensure that the quality of their tuition is the benchmark.
The company was originally established in 1984 and was known as the National Property Academy. The primary aim of the business was to train estate agents in preparation for the board exam. Over time its management has changed, and it has evolved to be a comprehensive training provider.
Throgh Graeme's involvement in various other institutions CPMD has gained vast experience in its primary fields, and has close associations with these organizations:
∙ Consulting
∙ Arbitration and Mediation:
Property disputes
∙ Programme design
∙ Skills Analysis
∙ Social Housing
∙ Sectional Title
One of CPMD's focuses is property - and all aspects of this multi-faceted industry. They train
everyone from estate agents and property managers to home loan consultants, developers
and private investors.
The spectrum of their expertise extends beyond this, however, offering training and other specialist
services in finance and management disciplines to staff at all levels from semi-literate to senior
management, in large corporate companies, small businesses as well as government. Public
Sector (government) training is one of CPMD's core competencies, and the college has become a
leader in social housing and consumer education programmes. In association with one of its
strategic partners, CPMD is able to offer its clients the necessary soft skills training as an added
benefit. Their legally trained staff members, who are also property experts, offer consulting and
