​Curriculum

​Overview

​A practitioner-led, full-day workshop built around seven hands-on exercises using real CRE problems: CAM reconciliation with planted errors, lease review with jurisdictional complexity, property valuation with data platform gaps, and vendor management with building-specific requirements. You move from using pre-built plugins, to customizing them for your asset class and jurisdiction, to assembling a workspace you can deploy Monday morning.

​

​Morning

​The Shift: Why AI transforms CRE careers and what the plugin architecture makes possible. Discussion and context-setting; no laptops.

​Claude on Your Files: Connect Cowork to a deal folder, organize documents, generate a manifest. The first hands-on experience.

​Connectors and Plugins: Connect email, calendar, and property management tools. Understand how plugins, connectors, and skills work in practice.

​Finance Plugin: CAM Reconciliation: Reconcile CAM charges against budget, decompose variance drivers, and generate a property-level P&L. Deliberately planted errors require lease-specific judgment to catch.

​

​Afternoon

​Legal Plugin: CRE Lease Review: Customize the Legal plugin's contract-review playbook for your asset class and jurisdiction. Run a full lease review and evaluate the output against professional standards.

​Multi-Plugin Deal Workflow: Combine valuation, investment screening, and IC memo drafting across four plugins. Override corporate finance defaults with CRE-appropriate assumptions.

​Operations Plugin: Apply structured workflows to vendor evaluation, maintenance runbooks, and operational status reporting.

​Capstone: Your Workspace: Select and configure connectors, plugins, and settings for your specific CRE role. Present your workspace. Walk out with a toolkit your team can use Monday morning.
