Real Estate Courses Overview
Salesperson Courses – This license allows one to work under a broker and take part in both residential or commercial real estate sales and rentals. Many offices are looking for new salespeople!
Broker Courses – The broker license identifies you as a real estate agent with at least one year of experience and allows you to open up your own office and work for yourself.
Continuing Ed Courses – State law requires that brokers and salespersons complete 12 hours of approved continuing education if they wish to maintain their license on an active status. Continuing Education is required to be done within 24 months before your renewal date. Courses are available in classroom or online.
