BOMA International Conference & Expo Student Day

Commercial real estate (CRE) is often overlooked, but every time you enter a building—whether it’s a school, office, stadium, or shopping center—teams of Property Managers, Facilities Managers, and Engineers are working to ensure these spaces are safe, well‑maintained, and functional. The CRE industry offers numerous lucrative career opportunities!

Jump start your career for FREE by joining Student Day at the BOMA International Conference & Expo on Monday, June 29 at the LBCC in Long Beach, CA. Participants will be assigned a mentor to accompany them throughout the day, making introductions to industry practitioners, answering questions, and providing guidance throughout the day’s activities.

At the BOMA International Conference & Expo, the power of our industry comes alive. This is where teams grow stronger, partnerships form, and you discover smart innovations and ideas to evolve with today’s occupants. Don’t miss this opportunity to conquer your hurdles, build key relationships, stay up to speed with where the industry is headed — and, of course, celebrate our successes along the way.
