We have identified that the industry's young professionals, members under 35 years, are an important segment, vital to attracting and retaining brokers to support industry growth.

It is therefore important to have access to data on young professionals (YP) so we can understand the existing YP challenges and barriers to success within the industry.

For this reason, we undertake regular research and run regular panels to determine what motivates young professionals to join the industry, their challenges, aspirations and outlooks, compared with those of established brokers.
