Braintree and Medford, MA (September 25, 2023) – The Peabody Companies, a group of award-winning property management and real estate firms, is pleased to announce that Bernice Cordeiro of Medford, Massachusetts, has been awarded a New England Past President’s Scholarship by the Boston Chapter of the Institute of Real Estate Management (IREM) to pursue a Certified Property Manager (CPM) designation.
The New England Past President’s Scholarship encourages education and industry knowledge by assisting recipients with the cost of tuition associated with earning an IREM credential.
Cordeiro, who joined the Peabody Companies in May of 2015, is the multi-site manager for Pleasant Street Apartments in Beverly and Bedford Green in Bedford, Massachusetts. Both sites offer permanent, supportive housing for homeless veterans and those at imminent risk of homelessness.
The scholarship award will cover a significant portion of the tuition associated with earning her CPM. The designation is considered the premier public sector property management certification world-wide and is based on a selected set of competencies.
“Congratulations to Bernice not only for receiving the IREM scholarship but also for taking another professional step in her chosen industry,” said Erin Simas, learning and development manager with the Peabody Companies.
