Land Training

So, I did a thing 👀

I created an online practice quiz based on the AAPL Study Guide! One of my goals this year was to build more interactive content for land professionals—and this is just the beginning.

Want to test your knowledge and see how you stack up? I’ve shared all the details (plus the quiz link) in my latest blog post.

Check it out below and let me know how you do—I hope you enjoy it!

Seriously, when is the last time you've heard this about a training class: "Alyce is an icon in my book. Smart, informative, and humorous all at once. This experience has been just grand." Reid E.

This month’s Student Spotlight feels especially meaningful.

As part of the Petroleum Extension - PETEX at The University of Texas at Austin Professional Land Management Certificate Program, students are challenged to connect classroom learning with real-world experience. Recent graduate and landman Daniel Parker did just that by sitting down with Peter Scott—a Denver-based landman with more than 40 years of experience and owner of Land Rights Services.

In this conversation, Peter shares hard-earned wisdom on integrity, communication, stewardship of the land, and the responsibility landmen carry as the industry’s front line. It’s a powerful reminder—especially this time of year—of the value of mentorship and passing knowledge from one generation to the next.

What does it really mean to work ethically in land management?

Earlier this month, I had the privilege of presenting at the West Coast Landman’s Institute in beautiful San Luis Obispo, CA. My session — “Rigged for Success: A Landman’s Guide to Ethics” — opened up a thoughtful, honest dialogue about the ethical challenges land professionals face every day.

We dug into critical themes like fair dealing, fiduciary duty, and professional competence — and how they shape not only our decisions, but the long-term reputation of our industry.

💬 The conversations that followed were candid, engaging, and a reminder of how essential it is to lead with integrity in this complex space where business, law, and land intersect.

In my latest post, I share key takeaways and practical insights from that session — tools that I hope will serve both seasoned professionals and those preparing to step into their careers.

Let’s dive into it: https://landtraining.net/rigged-for-success-a-landmans-guide-to-ethics/
