If you’ve been around us long enough, you know that we’re big into the notion of “generational handoff” and doing what we can to make sure that students and others who are building their careers realize that dirt law and related topics are very good areas in which to find your way.
Well, here’s the latest — a free webinar from the American Planning Association’s Planning and Law Division:
Second in a series of webinars aiming to answer student questions about career paths in the planning and law field, this webinar focuses on individuals working, or interested in working, in developing the built environment. Developers, as the main constructors of the built environment, must be familiar with urban conditions and the legal requirements that govern building on or redeveloping land. In-house counsel for development firms help their clients navigate through legal matters related to developing the built environment. Join us for a 90-minute discussion with four expert panelists, covering topics that include possible career paths in the private sphere, changes in the planning and law field over the years, and the experience and skills needed to enter the field, all with a focus on developers and in-house counsel. This webinar is for students, young professionals, and anyone who is interested in learning more about where a degree in planning, law, or both can take you in the private sphere.
