Real estate courses are offered in association with Rockwell Institute, the school
of record. Rockwell Institute is the course sponsor and holds all course approvals.
A real estate license opens up a world of career possibilities that offer independence, a flexible work schedule, and unlimited earning potential. But a successful real estate career requires preparation, commitment, and hard work. With a real estate license, you'll be opening the door to careers in residential sales, commercial real estate, property management, appraisal, mortgage financing, land development, urban planning, and real estate investment.
Real Estate Principles is the only course required to begin your career as a real estate agent. Two options are available to fit your learning style and your budget. Both courses include Rockwell's Principles of California Real Estate textbook, which instructors and students agree is thorough, clearly-written, up-to-date, and filled with useful study aids. You also get content and technical support from Rockwell's friendly team of course developers. (Note: For both options, the state requires you to take at least 18 days to complete the course and get certified.)
