Graduates often go on to become professional landmen, lease analysts, title analysts, lease negotiators, energy permit professionals, division order analysts or registered professional landmen (RPL). To become a RPL, a test is required after only one year of working in the field (as opposed to five years of required field work if students graduate from a non-accredited program).
