After completing basic real estate training there is usually a requirement in most reputable companies that professionals complete additional continuing education courses to maintain their license and job. These courses typically enhance the students knowledge of current changes to real estate law, business practices or ethical issues as they relate to real estate.

It is important to carefully read and understand all licensure requirements and confirm with your training program that they meet the various state regulations to allow you to become a real estate agent, broker or appraiser. This information should be provided to you in writing prior to collecting fees for the program.

Always check the refund or cancellation policy for classes to avoid any confusion or possible loss of funds should you be unable to attend the program or course. Most training agencies have a set cancellation or withdrawal date prior to the start of the course to allow you to receive at least a large portion of your tuition as a refund.
