Has anyone taken a 3 day course to be a Landman?
I’m in Texas and the course is in Louisiana. Just wondering if it has the potential to result in real employment offers. Cost of course is ,125.00

Is this what you mean by a "Landman"?
In the United States and Canada, a Landman is an individual who performs various services for oil companies. According to the website of the American Association of Petroleum Landmen, these services include: negotiating for the acquisition or divestiture of mineral rights; negotiating business agreements that provide for the exploration for and/or development of minerals; determining ownership in minerals through the research of public and private records; reviewing the status of title, curing title defects and otherwise reducing title risk associated with ownership in minerals; managing rights and/or obligations derived from ownership of interests in minerals; and unitizing or pooling of interests in minerals.

No need, common sense will arm you if you have a car, phone and computer. Those companies don’t give any secrets away.
