“Your course, in particular the Consumer Protection Reader portion, is profoundly relevant and helpful for practicing day to day! It is truly the best content and style I have ever seen for helping agents have an overview of what they need to know to be a helpful and efficient to our clients. I think it should be mandatory reading for any agent, especially as a new agent license requirement.”

Our 30-hour Consumer Protection Reader, 2012 has two
sections. First is “Defensive Real Estate” –
its text covers the first 60 pages of this course's 250-page textbook.
It
is an extension of our three-hour Risk Management course and, as
such, provides additional tips on how to avoid disputes
with your clients.
The second section is “Consumer Protection Articles.”
It contains over 100 articles drawn from two sources: (1) the DRE’s
Real Estate Bulletin and (2)
RealtyTimes.com. Taken together, the articles give you a
thorough review of changes affecting California real estate
brokerage over the preceding four years (the book is updated
annually – last update: October 2011). Areas covered include law, taxes, industry, financing,
mortgages, settlement, risk management, and home ownership. Click

including its table of contents.

Consumer Protection Reader, 2012; Part 2/2
The Consumer
Protection Reader is a 30-hour course with a
250-page textbook. Since the DRE limits the number
of CE hours which can be completed to 15 hours in any
24-hour period, we must split its final exam into two
parts. |

IMPORTANT:
The DRE requires
you to wait four
days after paid registration before taking any final
exam; and the DRE limits the number of course-hours you may
complete to 15-hours in any 24-hour period. Therefore, the
minimum number of days needed to pass all courses assuming you
do not fail the course by failing two successive
examinations (see below paragraph) is a little
over six days.
For a
detailed explanation of how you may pass all courses in six days, click
here.
DOUBLY
IMPORTANT:
New DRE examination rules went into effect April 1st,
2011: You now have just two chances to pass
any course. If, for any course, you fail its first
exam, you may immediately attempt to pass a second exam
composed of different questions. Should you fail
the second exam, you must wait until that course's study
period (see above table) has expired before making
another attempt to pass the course (or any other
course). The study period for this package's five,
three-hour courses (see above table) is just three
hours; but the study period for our two, 15-hour
examinations (see above table) is two days!
For details and an example, click
here. We
guarantee the DRE will accept the continuing education
credits you earn providing you complete the course
within one year after your paid registration. |
|
Only $38.25
if you pass our Demo first. |
After you pass your exams, we provide a
"certificate." It lists the DRE-assigned "certificate number"
for each course. You will enter these six
numbers when prompted by DRE's license renewal site (eLicensing).
We provide renewal instructions and a link to DRE's renewal
site once you have completed all courses. |
