Certified Training for Estate Agents
Maybo training helps estate agency teams recognise and reduce conflict and risks of violence when working at the office and when out and about at viewings.
Proven experience and expertise
Over 25 years Maybo has provided specialist training and guidance for organisations across retail and business services.
Estate agents experience challenging interactions on the phone and when face to face at the office or at viewings. This can include inappropriate and unwelcome behaviour, abuse and intimidation. Personal safety is a real concern, especially when lone and remote working.
Maybo training helps employees develop additional awareness and skills for reducing vulnerability in their work and in handling challenging conversations and behaviours.
Our comprehensive resources enable your organisation to provide flexible, cost-effective training including eLearning and practically based courses (delivered by our trainers or yours) with tailoring options for your specific needs.

eLearning
Maybo's eLearning programmes utilise the latest learning technologies, realistic scenarios and interactive exercises to offer an engaging self-study learning experience.
eLearning can play a valuable role within a blended learning strategy, underpinning the knowledge and reducing staff abstraction time, or in some instances as a complete solution. It also works well for induction and refresher training.
To find out more or for volume purchases contact our team or visit our eLearning store for individual purchases.
eLearning is also known as self-directed learning. It often precedes Classroom or Virtual Classroom training to provide a foundation of knowledge in advance - this is known as a blended approach.
Classroom
Maybo designs and delivers training to meet your requirements and can deliver direct to your staff wherever you need it. We take time to understand your training needs and the unique challenges and scenarios your colleagues face, to ensure our Classroom courses are highly relevant. Learners receive superb resources and certificates with a range of accreditation and qualification options.
Classroom training can be combined with eLearning to form a blended learning strategy, underpinning the knowledge and reducing staff abstraction time.
Classroom training is delivered by a trainer at an agreed venue. It is also sometimes called face-to-face or in-person training.
Virtual Classroom
Maybo designs and delivers Virtual Classroom training to meet your requirements.
Virtual Classroom training enables staff to benefit from engaging team training with high-levels of participation delivered remotely by a skilled facilitator over video conferencing software including Zoom and MS Teams.
Virtual Classroom training can also be combined powerfully with eLearning to form a blended learning strategy, with eLearning underpinning the knowledge and reducing staff abstraction time.
Virtual Classroom training is live, participatory training delivered remotely by a trainer with video conferencing software.
Train the Trainer
Maybo offers a Train the Trainer model that equips experienced trainers to deliver Maybo's accredited training curricula within their own organisation.
We run regular courses on a variety of subjects that include supporting people with complex needs, positive behaviour support, preventing conflict and behaviours of concern, safer approaches to de-escalation and conflict resolution, personal safety, assault avoidance and low arousal handling skills.
