Real Estate Licensing and the Career Paths You Didn’t Know Existed, Presented by Minerva Mims and Tiffany Ross of the NC Real Estate Commission

Minerva Mims of the North Carolina Real Estate Commission will walk students through the steps required to earn a real estate license in North Carolina, from education and exam preparation to what students can expect once they're licensed. We'll also explore the wide range of career paths available in the real estate industry, highlighting roles that require a license as well as those that don't. Students will gain a clearer understanding of how they can get started in real estate now and how the field can grow with them over time.

The North Carolina Real Estate Commission ("Commission") is an independent state governmental agency. It should not be confused with the North Carolina Association of REALTORS® (or its local Boards) which is a trade organization whose members are known as "REALTORS®".

The Commission’s primary function is to license and regulate real estate agents (persons and firms who sell, lease, etc. real estate for others). North Carolina’s 100,000-plus real estate agents are licensed as brokers.
