Land Bank Trainings
Gain insights from the experts in the land banking field—register for a National Land Bank Network (NLBN) Online Training!
Offered once per quarter, NLBN Online Trainings provide a hands-on experience in a virtual “classroom” setting, where—unlike traditional webinars—participants can interact with presenters in real-time, ask questions to unpack “in the weeds” topics, and network with fellow participants.
What do NLBN Trainings include?
- A pre-training knowledge assessment, which helps faculty shape their presentations according to audience level.
- Curated supplemental materials, which help participants further understand training concepts.
- Office hours with faculty to ask additional questions following the training webinar.
Trainings are free for NLBN members and available to non-members at a fee.
