A Real Estate Agent Licence issued by QLD Fair Trading will allow you to work as a licensed real estate agent in a sales, leasing, business broking or stock and station role and manage your own agency.

This course is appropriate for those who have completed the current QLD Real Estate Salesperson training requirements. Students currently registered under the superseded training requirements will need to complete a recognition of prior learning application before enrolling.

To apply for a licence with the QLD government, all applicants must:

• pass the required training course;
• not be insolvent under administration;
• not currently be disqualified from holding a licence or registration certificate;
• have not been convicted of a serious offence within the past 5 years.

Assessment by the College is competency-based. Competence implies that an individual demonstrates an understanding of the knowledge that is the basis of the practical task being carried out (i.e. having the required skills to carry out a specific role).

Student assignments are assessed based on whether or not the student has achieved the performance criteria for each element specified in the unit/s of competency they are undertaking (put simply, if you meet all of the learning criteria for a particular unit, you are competent in that unit). This method of assessment judges performance against a prescribed standard, not against other students. Students are assessed as 'Competent' or 'Not Yet Competent'.

Assignment submissions are assessed within five business days of submission. If your assessor grades your work as ‘Not Yet Competent’, they will provide feedback on what else they need you to address in your assignment before they can assess you as ‘Competent’. The best part? We don’t charge any resubmission fees for assessing, so you can resubmit as many times as you need to before being graded as ‘Competent’.
