8 Factors to Consider When Choosing a Real Estate Training Provider

From accreditation, support and a flexible modern learning environment, we examine the essentials to look for in your real estate training provider.



Choosing the right real estate training provider is a pivotal step in launching your successful career as a real estate agent or property manager. But there are so many training options available, how can you tell them apart? 


It’s essential to consider some key factors to ensure you receive the education and support you need to thrive in your new career. Here are eight crucial considerations:


  1. Accreditation: Ensure the training provider is accredited in your state by the relevant regulatory body. This guarantees that the course meets regulation industry standards and equips you with the necessary knowledge and skills to obtain your real estate license.

  2. Course Content: Scrutinise the course curriculum to confirm it covers all the essential topics required for your new career path and consider how that course content is provided. Look for comprehensive coverage of property law and the regulations you’ll need to abide by, as well as ethics, sales techniques, marketing strategies, and technology you’ll need to use. 

  3. Delivery Method: Choose a provider that offers a learning platform that is modern and interactive and has a format that suits your lifestyle and personal preferences. While the real estate industry has a lot of old-school training, the best providers offer a powerful mix of online,  peer and personal support and the ability to learn at your own pace. Consider factors like the quality of the online environment, flexibility, accessibility, and interaction with instructors and your fellow students. 

  4. Support and Mentoring: A reputable real estate training provider should offer ongoing support and mentorship throughout your learning journey. Look for access to tutors, course advisors and fellow students in study groups to help you navigate challenges, clarify concepts and stay motivated. The best real estate training providers are able to provide personalised support for students. 

  5. Student Success: Make sure you understand how the training provider will work to support your success as a student. What access to help will you have? Are you able to re-sit tests so that you can achieve mastery? Find out the training organisation’s policy around marking and informing you of your mark. The best real estate training providers are able to provide quick feedback and turn around marking in 48 hours so you’re not left in the dark about your progress. 

  6. Reviews and Testimonials: Research online reviews and testimonials from past students to gain insights into their experiences with the training provider. Look for feedback on the quality of instruction, support services, and overall satisfaction.

  7. Industry Connections: A strong network within the real estate industry can be invaluable for your career prospects. Choose a provider with established connections to agencies and industry professionals and connections to real estate professionals nationally. This can open doors to job opportunities. 

  8. Cost and Value: Compare the cost of different training providers, but don't solely focus on price. Consider the value proposition, including the comprehensiveness of the course, the quality of instruction, its use of technology, how industry-ready it will make you and the additional support services offered.


Make an Informed Decision:

Investing in quality education is an investment in your future success. By carefully evaluating these eight factors, you can confidently select the best real estate training provider that aligns with your career goals and learning style.
