In addition to the Real Estate Association Management concentration in the full Masters in Real Estate (MRE) degree program, REALTOR® University now offers a graduate certificate program in Real Estate Association Management.

“With the void being left by phasing out the University of Chicago certificate in nonprofit management, this program is ideal for association executives and association staff looking to take their skills and career to the next level,” says Jonathan Salk, dean of student services for REALTOR® University.

A minimum of six online courses are required for the certificate: Real Estate Association Management I—Leadership and Governance; Real Estate Association Management II—Association Financial Management; Program Development and Accountability in Real Estate Associations; Issues and Trends in Real Estate; Real Estate Law; and Real Estate Finance and Investments.

Enrollment is now open, and candidates must have a bachelor’s degree. Cost is estimated at $9,000 with tuition per course at $1,500. Students could complete the certificate in as little as year, says Salk, or take as long as needed. Credits for these six courses can also be applied to the master’s degree program.
