Continuing education for yacht brokers – IYBA sales summit
Continuing education is a core philosophy for Galati Yacht Sales employees and sales professionals. More than a third of our yacht brokers have reached the highest level of industry accreditation, the CPYB (Certified Professional Yacht Broker), administered by the Yacht Brokers Association of America.
In August, 30 members from Team Galati’s west coast offices attended the International Yacht Brokers Association West Coast Sales Summit, which also was an opportunity for CPYB brokers to earn continuing education credits.
IYBA Sales Summit Topics – Continuing Education For Yacht Brokers
Why is your yacht brokers and support team’s education important to you as a yacht seller or buyer? Well, let’s look at some of the topics covered at the IYBA Summit: Ethics, Presentation by the Florida Department of Business and Professional Regulation, Technical Advances in Boat Design, Marketing, Contracts, and Form Updates were just a few of the items on the agenda.
By staying on top of industry trends and direction, the team at GYS can offer you the best customer support and experience.
In addition to attending, several members of the GYS team served on the speaker panels, including CFO Darren Plymale, closing coordinator Julie Ann Galati, and marketing director Mary Strauss.
“Anytime we have the opportunity to hear from industry leaders and network with our peers in the yacht brokerage community, it is time well-spent,” said Steve Gale, Tampa store manager, and Prestige Yachts brand manager.
