LOS ANGELES, CA – October 31, 2011 – (RealEstateRama) — The University of Southern California Ross Minority Program in Real Estate, a professional training program that teaches real estate fundamentals to individuals interested in creating positive change in emerging communities, is accepting applications for its winter session, which begins Jan. 19.

Launched after the period of civil unrest in Los Angeles in 1992 and later expanded with a grant from USC Lusk Center for Real Estate Chairman Stan Ross and his wife Marilyn, the program helps members of minority groups and those who invest time and financial resources in emerging communities to become leaders in real estate finance and development.

Using lectures, field trips, panel discussions and hands-on projects, the program’s diverse faculty covers a range of topics, including real estate finance, market analysis, highest and best use analysis, and site planning. Participants leave the program with an understanding of finance and the development process, as well as access to a substantial industry network.

The winter session occurs three days per week over four weeks: Jan. 19-21, Jan. 26-28, Feb. 2-4 and Feb. 8-10. A graduation ceremony will take place Friday, Feb. 10.

The application deadline is Nov. 15. For more information, visit www.usc.edu/ross or contact Mary Peralta at 213.821.1031.
