A nationwide network of industry professionals from the property management and apartment industry comprise the RPM Advisory Board.  Membership contributions generously support RPM scholarships, student activities, professional networking events, and more. 

Board member companies also support the RPM Program in many other ways.  They offer their apartment communities for RPM class projects, field trips, and internship sites.  Members of the Advisory Board also share their expertise with students through guest lectures in the classroom. 

Many advisory board members serve as mentors to RPM students during their academic preparation and beyond.  Some students work part-time for advisory board member companies while taking classes.  A large number of RPM graduates are employed by advisory board member companies.
