The Broker Licensing Course comprehensively fulfills New York State's requirements, encompassing the newly mandated 75 hours of seat time, along with 2 hours dedicated to implicit bias education spread across 20 sessions. To ensure an optimal learning experience, each session accommodates a limited number of students, allowing learners ample time to absorb crucial information under the guidance of our experienced instructors. Upon successful completion of all sessions, students are eligible to take both the final proctored school exam and the state exam.

The Brokers License Course is 77 hours, broken up into 20 sessions offered every month. The sessions are independent of each other and can be taken in any order. After completing your 20 sessions, you will need to take your school and state exams.

*Please note: If you got your Salesperson license prior to July 2008, the State requires that you take a 30-hour remedial course in addition to the 77-hour Brokers Course.

You are required to make an online reservation in order to take the state exam. Even if you plan on taking the exam a few months from now, we recommend that you make your reservation immediately for your real estate broker license in NY.
