Steps to Becoming a Licensed Realtor in Alberta

If you’re interested in being a real estate agent in Alberta, you’ve come to the right place. 

Step 1. Education:

Your journey begins with the right education. We’ll help you navigate through the required real estate courses and programs to ensure you’re well-prepared for success. You have 5 options for courses: 

Course Options in Alberta

Alberta Real Estate Association 

Alberta Real Estate School

Rise Real Estate Academy

Step 2. Licensing: 

It is mandatory to have a license to practice real estate in Alberta. That’s where RECA (Real Estate Council of Alberta) comes into play—as the province’s governing body for the industry, the Real Estate Council of Alberta (RECA) provides the guidance, education, and licensing you need in order to become a real estate licensee. Your relationship with RECA will start with the educational courses above and then your RECA licence; your relationship then continues with yearly re-licensing, and continual guidance, advice, and resources to support your career. Do you think you have what it takes to join Alberta’s over 12,000 real estate licensees? We’ll guide you through the licensing process, ensuring you meet all the necessary requirements to become a certified Realtor in Alberta.
