A national licensing academy

Licensing education,
state by state.

Real estate and mortgage are two different licences, with two different regulators and two different approval routes. Start with the one you actually need.

Real Estate

Start with your state.

Requirements, required hours, examinations, and renewal rules are set by each state’s own regulator. Choose yours to see what applies.

Quick question.

Why does getting a real estate license still feel like piecing together instructions from different websites, outdated course materials, and a hundred “Next” buttons?

Every state has its own rules. Different education requirements. Different course hours. Different exams. Different licensing steps.

And somehow, you're expected to figure out the entire process on your own.

That's why we built StateCourse.

One national platform. One account. A clear licensing path for every state we serve.

Choose your state, and StateCourse shows you what comes next: required education, exam preparation, application steps, fingerprinting and licensing requirements, and later, continuing education and renewal.

And the course itself?

No hours of mandatory video lectures. No filler. No endless clicking just to move forward.

You learn through a serious digital textbook built around clear explanations, real-world transactions, state-specific law, practical examples, knowledge checks, and human instructor support when you need it.

And StateCourse doesn't end when the course ends.

Your progress, certificates, exam preparation, and next licensing step stay together in one place.

We're launching state by state and expanding across the country.

So whether you're getting your first real estate license or keeping the one you've already earned—start with your state.
