“Nina's AI knowledge is exceptional. To present and carry a room full of 'weathered' professionals on the journey from where they are to where they might/should consider going is no mean feat. AI is coming whether property professionals like it or not and Nina is making a real difference in breaking down uncomfortable barriers and making it all seem much more accessible and useful.”
New AI tools are reaching your firm faster than anyone can check them
Under the RICS Professional Standard, the duty to check them sits with you.
New solutions arrive every week. Some come from established suppliers. Some come from startups with a brand and little behind them. A practical hour on what the standard now requires, where the real risks sit, and how to tell a credible supplier from a fragile one.
Wednesday 15 July 2026. 1pm to 2pm UK time. Free. Online. Informal CPD.
The market changed. Your obligations changed with it.
New AI tools reach the profession every week. Some come from surveyors. Some come from tech startups and overseas operators. Under the RICS Professional Standard, every tool your firm uses falls within scope, and the obligation to check it stays with your firm. Many suppliers do not know the standard exists. This hour covers what to check, and how to read the answers you get.
- Where the tools come from
Surveyors, tech startups, and overseas operators. Why credibility varies so widely, and what to look for.
- What the standard requires
The checks your firm must make before and during use of any third-party AI tool.
- Where your data goes
Hosting location, UK jurisdiction, GDPR position, and who owns what you put in.
- The commercial risk
What happens to your records and your exposure if a supplier folds. Cost creep, and why some suppliers are not registered companies at all.
- Credible or fragile
The questions to put to any supplier in writing, and what a thin answer tells you.
If your firm uses AI, this is for you.
