This isn't your mother's GRI!
Brand new material, an exciting array of instructors on the faculty and new energy fill the classrooms each
month at GRI. If
you're contemplating beginning your GRI designation, you can start in any
month and have your designation in as few as six months!
You only have ONE year to get your Sales
Associates License
You can complete your post-license education requirement by taking Modules
101, 102, 201 and 202 in any sequence! At that point, only two more modules will
earn you the GRI Designation! There's no logical reason to do it any
other way and end up without a professional designation.
Take your designation to the bank! Today’s market expects the highest level of expertise from each REALTOR®. In both their heightened proficiency and
increased marketability, it is clear that REALTORS® who pursue professional
designations have a distinct competitive edge. A 2005 NAR Member Survey
shows that REALTORS® with the GRI Designation earned $84,500, while those
without a designation earned only $35,500.

Why provisional sales associates should earn the GRI
You can fulfill your post license education requirements by completing
GRI 101, 102, 201 and 202 in any sequence and be 2/3 of the way toward
your GRI designation!
Through increased awareness of current topics important to the real
estate professional, you can better serve prospective clients and
customers.
The GRI designation is obtained by attending a specific, intensive series of
99 hours of classroom instruction.
A REALTOR® with the GRI designation is highly trained in many areas that
benefit their customers and clients including:
- Marketing
- Technology
- Cultural Diversity
- Professional Standards
- Contract Law
- Broker Relationships
The subject matter has been chosen to educate you about local, state and
national real estate practices that affect you, your clients and customers.
The knowledge gained during the GRI program can help you overcome obstacles
that can jeopardize a transaction.
Why Brokers Should Encourage Their Associates to
Earn the GRI
- Your sales associates will be more knowledgeable and productive.
- A recent
NAR study shows that REALTOR® members
who have a designation
earn an extra $42,000 per year.
- Students will spend only two days out of the
office each month for six month. Many years ago, students spent a week at GRI
around the state.
- A better educated sales staff helps reduce risk and liability.
- Associates with professional designations enhance your company’s image.
