Building off of the four (4) courses required for the Real Estate Salesperson Certificate of Achievement, the purpose of the Real Estate Broker Certificate of Achievement is to help a student complete the additional five (5) courses required to take the California Real Estate Broker licensing examination. Prior to taking the California Real Estate Broker's License Exam, the applicant must have completed five (5) required core courses and three (3) additional elective courses (see https://www.dre.ca.gov/examinees/requirementsbroker.html). The courses included in this certificate are designed to fulfill the coursework requirements for a student to take the written examination for a Real Estate Broker license, as well as to help develop a plan to launch a successful real estate career upon graduation. These courses also provide the basic background and information needed as a future employer of sales people in real estate. Upon successfully completing all California Department of Real Estate (DRE) requirements, including passing the examination, a license will need to be approved by the DRE. For additional information regarding the California Real Estate Broker license, refer to http://www.dre.ca.gov. The license is required of individuals who conduct licensed real estate activities as described by Real Estate Law in California. Students are encouraged to continue their real estate training by completing the requirements for the Real Estate A.S. degree or Certificate of Achievement. To earn a certificate of achievement, students must complete each of the required courses with a āCā grade or higher.
With existing Real Estate program enrollment and completion, as well as declared Real Estate majors, fairly steady or on the rise, this certificate is expected to provide an opportunity for students to earn another award while on their way to completing the existing Real Estate A.S. degree. The stackable nature of this certificate, as well as its online availability, is expected to increase student enrollment and completion.
