The 2025-2026 TLTA Leadership Academy class has officially graduated! 🎉

Over the past few months, our newest class of 61 title professionals came together for four sessions — building leadership skills, expanding industry knowledge, and forming connections that will last a lifetime. We wrapped up with an incredible two-day session earlier this month in Austin that we won't soon forget.

Thank you to our generous sponsors — First American Title Guaranty Company, DataTrace, First American Exchange Company, First American Trust, and TrustLink — for making this program possible.
