Real Estate Division - Professional Development Courses | UBC Sauder School of Business, Vancouver, Canada

The Real Estate Division offers a series of short online Professional Development courses aimed at satisfying real estate practitioners' continuing education needs. All courses are offered through distance education in a self-study format (with an online quiz) or a live webinar .

Course Structure - Live Webinars and Self-Study

CPD courses range from one to four lessons, typically 3-5 hours of work per lesson. Students will receive an email with their CPD course login ID and password by the end of the next business day after submitting a course registration.

Live Webinars - Feed Your Future
The Real Estate Division periodically offers professional development courses in a live webinar ("web-based seminar") format. Students view a presentation on a topical issue by industry professionals. Webinars are generally available in November/December and at other times during the year subject to demand. Students taking a live webinar will be provided with access to supplementary materials online and some courses include a printed workbook. The student will be expected to complete two hours of self-study before taking the two-hour online seminar. Active participation in the seminar (e.g., through poll questions and evaluation surveys) is mandatory in order to receive the AIC CPD credits – an online quiz is required in some courses. Find out more about live webinars here. Please note, live webinar offerings are subject to enrollment.

Self-Study Courses

The student reads the materials at his or her own pace and, when ready, completes a 20-question multiple choice online quiz.
