A Certified Commercial Investment Member (CCIM)
is a recognized expert in the disciplines of
commercial and investment real estate. A CCIM is
an invaluable resource to the commercial real
estate owner, investor, and user, and is among
an elite corps of 7,500 professionals across
North America who hold the CCIM designation.
Recognized for its preeminence within the
industry, the CCIM curriculum represents the
core knowledge expected of commercial investment
practitioners, regardless of the diversity of
specializations within the industry. The CCIM
curriculum consists of four core courses that
incorporate the essential CCIM skill sets:
financial analysis, market analysis, user
decision analysis, and investment analysis for
commercial investment real estate. Additional
curriculum requirements may be completed through
CCIM elective courses, transfer credit for
graduate education or professional recognition,
and qualifying non-CCIM education. Following the
course work, candidates must submit a resume of
closed transactions and/or consultations showing
a depth of experience in the commercial
investment field. After fulfilling these
requirements, candidates must successfully
complete a comprehensive examination to earn the
CCIM designation. This designation process
ensures that CCIMs are proficient not only in
theory, but also in practice.
With such a wide range of subjects to be
mastered and in a dynamic business such as real
estate, the educational process doesn't end once
the designation is earned; there is a strong
commitment among CCIMs to continuing education.
Only 6 percent of the estimated 125,000
commercial real estate practitioners nationwide
hold the CCIM designation, which reflects not
only the caliber of the program, but also why it
is one of the most coveted and respected
designations in the industry. The CCIM
membership network mirrors the increasingly
changing nature of the industry and includes
brokers, leasing professionals, investment
counselors, asset managers, appraisers,
corporate real estate executives, property
managers, developers, institutional investors,
commercial lenders, attorneys, bankers and other
allied professionals. Through this business
network and through enhanced communication with
the CCIM electronic network, CCIMs successfully
complete approximately 156,000 transactions
annually, representing more than $400 billion.
Certified Commercial Investment Members are in
more marketplaces in North America -- 12 CCIM
regions representing 1,000 cities -- than all
major real estate companies combined. Regions
and chapters provide designees and candidates
the opportunities to promote business and
educational goals through local and regional
forums and meetings.
Conferred by the CCIM Institute, the CCIM
designation was established in 1969. Courses
leading to the designation are now offered
throughout the world.
