The Advanced Development Process: Commercial course presents a detailed look at commercial development and redevelopment, with an emphasis on office and retail properties. For those about to start a commercial development or redevelopment project as a developer, financier, project manager, or asset manager, or in a public sector capacity, this course will provide an in-depth look at the complex process of developing commercial properties. This capstone course will explore the nuances of the development process, including managing the development pipeline, entitlements, construction, financial modeling, raising capital, and other relevant areas.

Organized as a small-group, highly interactive seminar, the course will include group discussion and presentations supported by tours and case studies. Each of the four days will include a combination of skill sessions, project presentations, and project tours. Specific areas of the commercial development process that will be explored include feasibility analysis, market analysis, capital markets, capital structure, site planning, product design, leasing, and the increasing demand for green design techniques.

The course will make use of site visits to commercial developments in the Washington, D.C., area.
