What do I need to get a real estate license?

Any person wishing to conduct professional real estate activity in Oregon must obtain a real estate license from the Oregon Real Estate Agency. The Real Estate Agency is the government agency responsible for licensing and the regulation of real estate and property management professionals. The application process has four parts:

1. Education - Complete the OnlineEd Oregon state-approved pre-license course.
2. Background Check - Once your enroll in the course, we will send your background check authorization form. You should complete and return the form to the Oregon Real Estate Agency as soon as possible. (Background checks can take up to six weeks to process.)
3. State Licensing Exam - You must pass a state-proctored licensing examination, which will be administered by the state through an approved test provider. Testing centers are located throughout Oregon. Once you are enrolled in your course and have completed your background check, the agency will issue you a test center authorization number for scheduling your exam.
4. License Application - You must submit the state-required licensing application to the Oregon Real Estate Agency for review and approval.

Who developed the course?

The Oregon Real Estate License Training course is written by OnlineEd! That means your Oregon course is written by practicing Oregon real estate professionals. OnlineEd is not a course reseller; We write all of our own courses.

What makes the OnlineEd course different from competitors?

• The OnlineEd course is written by OnlineEd. Most other schools are simply resellers of systems sold by large education providers.
• A personal instructor. Self-paced learning is great, but where can you turn when you have a question? With a personal instructor, just pick up the phone or send a quick email and get a friendly response.
• Value-priced. Because every course we sell is written by us, we save on overhead licensing costs. Because the course is delivered entirely over the web, there are no production costs associated with books, CDs, and software. We can pass the savings onto you.
• Highly recommended. OnlineEd is used by over 700 real estate offices, organizations, real estate schools, and colleges.
