Class Description

Moving from agent to broker is a significant shift — a transition from operating within an agency to starting one from the ground up. In this class, you'll focus on the real-world issues that broker's face every day. But more than just getting you certified, we'll be your guide as you build your company culture and brand identity beyond the exam.

You already know about the real estate business, which is why your broker pre-license class will build on your knowledge base with key techniques that prepare you for what's next. You'll develop problem-solving strategies through case studies, small group exercises and simulations. Now is the time to move up to the next level!

Instructor Bio

Joi Bostic

Since Joi Bostic was a little girl, everyone around her would say that she would grow up to teach others. Although she would hold classes with her dolls and stuffed animals, she resisted and protested against a career as a teacher. Her formal education had her on track to enter corporate America in the area of marketing management. However, after college, Joi finally followed her “true calling” and entered the classroom in 1988. Since then she has taught college credit courses, traveled the country delivering workshops and seminars and designed hundreds of courses and workshops. Joi has earned a reputation for Real Estate training as being a thorough, easy-to-understand instructor with humor and practical application. Recently, Joi completed and was awarded the REEA Gold Standard Instructor Certification. Joi’s goal in instructing is to ensure that learning takes place in an enjoyable safe environment and each student walks away with an understanding of the material. In 2021, Joi received the Mary Shern Educator of the Year Award by the Georgia Real Estate Educators Association (GREEA).
