Education Focus

Billions of dollars are spent annually in the acquisition, management, and transfer of rights of way. With the technical skills required for ​proficiency in this complex activity, IRWA's specialized education and training programs provide an essential foundation for right of way ​professionals across the U.S. and Canada in all right of way disciplines: negotiation and acquisition, management, appraisal, relocation ​assistance, environmental, asset/property management, real estate law, engineering and surveying.

Hundreds of classroom based classes are presented annually ​through the United States and Canada. Classroom based ​educational offerings are facilitated by right of way professionals ​who have extensive practical experience within their discipline and ​the ability to engage participants in active learning.
