ProSchools Online Training Approved for Real Estate

2008-05-09 09:32:06 - ProSchools, a leader in online real estate, insurance, and mortgage lending education, is now an approved online real estate provider in Wyoming. Being one of the first online providers in the state, ProSchools now offers the 30 hour Sales Course I. ProSchools is approved by the Wyoming Real Estate Commission.

According to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, the real estate industry projects an increase in the number of agents over the next decade. A growing population means a greater housing need. Low interest rates also drive market activity and people see purchasing a home as a solid investment. These factors result in a greater need for real estate agents and brokers.

ProSchools, considered a pioneer developer of internet courses, is meeting the need for more real estate professionals by offering online training. It has quickly become the method of choice for training. "We have seen a huge shift in how people want to complete their education," says John Vogler, Vice President of Sales for ProSchools. "People don't want to drive hours to attend live classes anymore. Nor do they want to take time off work because of scheduling conflicts. Being able to complete the education from home is not just a want anymore; it's become a necessity."

Real Estate, considered one of the easiest career paths to pursue, does not require years of college nor cost thousands of dollars. There is no prerequisite regarding work history or experience.

The Wyoming Real Estate Commission (WREC) requires 54 hours of education, referred to as Sales Course I and Sales Course II, in order to obtain a real estate license in Wyoming. Besides the education, future salespeople must pass the state license exam, administered by AMP, Wyoming's testing provider.

WREC recently approved ProSchools' online real estate Sales Course I. "ProSchools is excited to begin offering our convenient online training in Wyoming," said Jeff Wiles, owner of ProSchools. "We are proud of our product and our ability to provide a convenient training option. Our goal is to offer real estate training that is quality, affordable, and allows people a way to reach their dreams. Online training gives people that opportunity."

ProSchools, with over 50 years experience developing real estate, insurance, and mortgage lending courses, is also an approved real estate provider in Oregon, Washington, Nevada, Colorado, Hawaii, and Tennessee.
