Project REAP (Real Estate Associate Program) announces the return of the REAP Academy in spring 2024, bridging the gap between talented, diverse professionals and the commercial real estate (CRE) industry.
REAP is designed for professionals or entrepreneurs from a multicultural and historically under-represented community seeking to enter the commercial real estate industry, planning a career pivot, or currently working in the CRE space and aiming to advance their career. Over 1,800 professionals have graduated from this industry-supported program.

Virtual: Candidates who don’t live within a reasonable commuting distance of a current REAP metro take 7 weeks of virtual sessions; tuition $900.
Starting date: April 8, 2024. End date: June 10, 2024. Virtual sessions are Mondays and Thursdays from 5 to 6:30 pm EST.
Applications are due January 31st, midnight EST. See projectreap.org for details.
“Project REAP has been an invaluable resource in so many ways. I was part of a cohort that was extremely supportive and that I am in constant contact with today. We share ideas, resources, and information; and the networking … has been helpful in all areas including personal and professional,” said Adrienne Hood, general manager, Sugarloaf Mills, Simon Property Group.
