Oregon Real Estate Broker Pre-License Training Course Package

Catalog Effective Date: January 1, 2021

Course Description and Course Details

The Course

As a pre-license candidate, Oregon requires you to complete a 150-hour real estate broker pre-license course. This 150-hour course is made up of seven required individual courses we call "modules." These seven modules are:

1. Agency (15 hours)

2. Contracts (15 hours)

3. Real Estate Law (30 hours)

4. Practices (30 hours)

5. Brokerage (20 hours)

6. Finance (30 hours)

7. Property Management (10 hours)

Each module is further divided into smaller sections called "segments." Throughout the segments there are activities for you to complete, including audio/visual presentations, reading assignments, and simple learning assessments. At the end of each module, you are presented with a final learning assessment. These seven module final learning assessments are required by the Oregon Real Estate Agency in order to demonstrate competency in the subject matter of the modules. For the most part, these assessments are made from multiple choice questions. Once you pass a module final assessment with a minimum score of 75%, you are granted access to the next module.

While the course and our delivery method will adequately prepare you for your module final learning assessments, your OnlineEd Certified Designated Course Instructor is also available to help you prepare or review your results.

The course is available in English-only.

Enrollment Extensions

If your Oregon real estate & broker training course expires, you may extend it for one-time only. Extensions are for 60 days from the date of the end of the original enrollment period (not from the date the extension is requested) and must be accompanied by the applicable extension fee.
