An Associate in Arts degree may be earned by completing a minimum of 60 units of degree credit coursework, including the<br>major requirements and breadth requirements, with a minimum grade point average of 2.0. Students must complete all courses<br>for the major with a grade of C or better. You need to complete three classes before you can take the California licensing exam:<br>Real Estate Principles, where you study the fundamentals of real estate ownership, management and sales.<br>Real Estate Practice, where you learn all about the day-to-day operation of a real estate office.<br>And one elective, like Legal Aspects of Real Estate, Real Estate Finance, Property Management, Principles of Accounting I or Business Law. (Principles of Accounting and Business Law are listed under the Business department in our catalog.)<br>At CCC, you can take all three in just one semester of evening classes–but that isn't the real reason our program is such a great idea. The truth is that there is much more to success than just taking the classes and passing the exam. And, if you really want to know your stuff, and show clients and employers that you're the right one for the job (or promotion,) you can get an associate degree or certificate of achievement that includes all of those classes right here on our campus.
