RICS is pleased to invite you to a CPD and networking event at Bond University, Gold Coast - 1 Hour CPD

Join us for the book launch of Advancing Real Property Valuation: AI, Drones & Emerging Digital Technologies in Professional Practice and Education.

This landmark publication brings together leading academics and industry experts to explore the transformative role of technology in property valuation, from AI-driven valuation models to drone-assisted data collection and other emerging digital tools.

The event will feature a keynote by Professor David Parker FRICS, presentations from contributing authors, and a panel discussion on the implications of these innovations for professional practice and education globally.
