The course design is dictated by the California Department of Real Estate and requires you to demonstrate mastery of the subject matter in each chapter before progressing to the next. As a result,

  1. Online chapter quizzes are mandatory.
  2. You must advance through chapter quizzes in a linear fashion. You cannot advance to the next chapter quiz before you complete the previous chapter reading assignment and quiz.
  3. You cannot access the course final examination until all chapter quizzes have been completed and the minimum completion time has elapsed.

The DRE requires a MINIMUM COMPLETION TIME of 2.5 weeks (18 calendar days) from the date you enroll and access the course material. The MAXIMUM TIME we allow for completion of any course is one (1) year from the date of enrollment.
