Class Information
The REAL classes are carefully organized and include a comprehensive study of a variety of business and real estate topics. The candidates look at local government, economic and professional development, media skills, housing, and neighborhoods, just to name a few. As a benefit to the attendees, classroom instruction is combined with exciting field trips to provide a close-up look at all of the above topics.

“The experience is eye opening and mind expanding. I had no idea of the scope of MIBOR or the vital interaction between assoc. and government - city/state/local, etc. The experience is so huge it is hard to explain to others, other than recommending they try it.”
