Who this is for

For agents who want more than a requirement checked off.

NAR certification and designation courses are a natural next step for agents who want practical professional growth, stronger conversations with clients, and a more credible advisory role.

They also give Excel School a clean category for courses that are not pre-license, not a free career quiz, and not simply mandatory CE.

Active Realtors Agents who want stronger field skills and better client conversations.
Brokerages and teams Groups looking for practical training around representation, pricing, and advisory standards.
Returning students Former pre-license students who want a place to keep learning after passing the exam.
Growth-minded agents Licensees building a more professional, differentiated real estate practice.

Questions

What agents usually need to know first.

These can be tightened once the exact course inventory, dates, pricing, and registration links are confirmed.

Are these courses for new license students?

No. This page is mainly for active Realtors and licensees who want professional development beyond pre-license education.

Are these the same as mandatory CE?

Not necessarily. Some professional courses may overlap with CE needs where applicable, but this page should be positioned around skill growth first.

Which course should I start with?

ABR is a strong fit for buyer representation. PSA is a strong fit for pricing and CMA confidence. The best choice depends on the skill you want to build next.

Will more courses be added?

Yes. This page is designed to become the home for Steven's NAR certification and designation course offerings as they are scheduled.
