By Carrie Rossenfeld | Updated on March 22, 2013

LOS ANGELES-Store owners, managers and employees located at NewMark Merrill‘s portfolio of more than 70 shopping centers will now have the opportunity to sample practical college courses at no cost to the learners. The commercial real estate property-management and development firm is partnering with Fremont College to offer these retail employees the unique corporate-training opportunity of learning relevant retail-related skills alongside full-time college students.

Employees will have the chance to learn in the same classrooms as these students, improving their skills in web development, store management, visual marketing, financial statement analysis, computer literacy and business leadership. Fremont College has identified these courses as relevant to the communities that NewMark Merrill serves, their tenants and upwardly mobile employees alike. The program will initially launch at multiple Southern California centers including Anaheim Town Center, Bristol Warner Marketplace in Santa Ana, Bristol Warner Village in Santa Ana, Norwalk Town Center, Park Plaza on Main in Baldwin Park and University Village in Riverside, which will also include signage.
