This is an entirely online class that we truly believe is expansive, offering people a good amount of information about how buying and selling real estate works in the United States, along with information about working in the field of real estate. The prerequisite for taking this course is simply to have a high school education. Once completed this would allow the learner to become licensed as a real estate agent, if they wish. 

A PDF copy of the course book is included in the cost.  If you would like to purchase a hardcover book ($25 plus tax) please let us know at registration.
