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.
