I just wanted to let you know how much I enjoyed your class!  It was a real treat to learn something that I found very interesting and taught in a format that made it fun to learn. I got so much more out of it knowing that you have been in the business for so many years and not just a teacher sitting behind a desk!  You know what they say about those who can do, and those who can't- teach.  Well, that's what made your class so interesting.  You have the real working knowledge and wisdom to back up what you teach.  I appreciate your commitment to passing on that knowledge.

Sincerely,
Sherlyn Parham

I would like to let you know that I interviewed with a company yesterday, and they offered me a position. At first they seemed to blow me off until I showed them the material we covered in your class. They were impressed with my knowledge and immediately offered the position to me. I will be making about $40,000 more than I did last year - not bad huh?  So I would like to thank you for your school. I am now financially stable, and I can only be more successful in the future. I owe a lot of my success to your school and your advice. (I decided to swing by the company and talk to the HR department. and it worked!)

Fair winds and following seas,

Things to bring to class:  Pen, legal pad, calculator (that goes up to 10 decimals) and laptop (if you already have one).  A course manual will be provided for you to keep.

The demand for field petroleum landmen and field landman training has never been greater due to new opportunities in the oil industry as well as emerging alternative energy such as wind energy. 

Due to emerging alternative energy sources such as wind energy the winter classes and next years classes will include leasing and title for wind farms and pipeline right-of-way for the petroleum industry, utility industry and communications industry.

The Petroleum Landman School (PLS) is proud to announce a recent strategic alliance between the school and a company called the CLS Group (Capital Land Services, Inc). They have offices in Edmond, Oklahoma – Tulsa, Oklahoma – Fort Worth, Texas – Denver, Colorado, Parkersburg, West Virginia – and soon to open Pittsburg, Pennsylvania and central California. PLS students who qualify may be extended an opportunity to participate (providing a project is available) in the CLS Work Program – meaning if there is work available for them to shadow our field landmen then the invitation will be extended (please keep in mind this will happen if there is such work available), and Mentorship Program in the event CLS elects to use them as contract landmen. The Work Program allows students the ability to work alongside CLS landmen while attending school to gain a better grasp of concepts discussed in class. The Mentorship Program allows them to work with an assigned mentor. Graduates of PLS may be invited to submit their resumes to the CLS Group.
