Free Training Available for Concierges and Property Managers

Written by Keara Mehlert | January 19, 2016

It’s no secret that businesses, residents, and visitors typically choose to be in Arlington for one key reason: location and accessibility. Which is why it’s become so important for property managers, building concierges, and company HR departments to become knowledgeable about the County transportation options and the best ways to travel around.

 

One of ATP’s more under-the-radar services available to commercial properties, multi-family residential buildings, businesses, and hotels is free training for appropriate staff members. This includes detailed information about County transportation services, regional commuter programs, local events, and current promotions or campaigns. The training sessions can be customized based on the specific location and unique needs of the property or organization. ATP representatives will conduct the training on site and provide necessary materials for participants to reference during and after a training. These can include the new ATP Resource Guide—geared towards property managers and concierge staff—as well as templates and examples of promotional flyers, handouts, benefit policies, and more.

A customized training session on transportation programs can have numerous benefits for properties, hotels, and businesses. Appropriately trained staff such as property managers, concierges, and HR professionals will be able to confidently talk about the transportation options, services, and resources available. By pointing out all the nearby commute options and transportation services, this knowledge ultimately puts a spotlight on the accessibility and convenience of a property’s or business’ location. In addition, having a strong grasp of transportation in the area will only enhance programs such as a property tour for potential tenants, or build a stronger case when recruiting talented employees to a company.

Contact ATP to set up a training for your property or company in 2016. For properties with frequent management turnover, we can schedule regular quarterly or biannual training sessions to ensure your staff are kept up to date and aware of the transportation services in your neighborhood.
