Interested in a career in business or real estate? Explore careers in commercial real estate, including construction, property management, design, development, and more. Participate in a hands-on activity simulating how to develop and market spaces for your future business clients. You’ll get coaching from professionals in the field and hear how they got started, and you’ll get to explore the beautiful Field Office building and get the inside scoop on how it’s designed and leased. Light breakfast and lunch provided.
How to attend:
Step 1: Fill out the student interest form ASAP. (Type your email address and cell number carefully so we can reach you!)
Step 2: Have your parent/guardian fill out the parent/guardian permission form ASAP. (Your application can’t be considered until this is done.) Students who do this early have much better luck at being accepted.

Step 4: Show up and have an amazing time!
