Real Estate As A Career
This information is designed to help you make a more informed decision on whether or not you should choose a career in real estate.

English Language Proficiency Requirement
All Real Estate Trading Services, Rental Property Management, and Strata Management Licensing students must satisfy an English Language Proficiency Requirement (ELPR).

As a requirement of the Rules made under the Real Estate Services Act, the ELPR may be satisfied by achieving a level 7 or higher on each of the four components (reading, writing, speaking and listening) of the Canadian English Language Proficiency Index Program - General (CELPIP-G) test on the same test score report (scores from multiple test attempts cannot be combined). An applicant is deemed to have satisfied the ELPR if he or she:

  1. has graduated from a recognized university Bachelor�s degree or higher degree at an accredited university, college or technical institute at which English is the primary language of instruction; or

  2. has been licensed for real estate services in another Canadian jurisdiction with English language standards and have satisfied that jurisdiction�s English language requirements.

The ELPR must be satisfied before you can register for an exam and if licensing is your intention we strongly recommend that you consider satisfying the ELPR prior to course registration. Note that CELPIP-G test fees apply.

Calculator or Calculator App only required for Trading Services

Due to ongoing global supply chain issues and chip shortages, there is currently a shortage of HP 10bII+ calculators.

Students who plan to write their examination at the UBC Computerized Examination Centre (CEC) in Vancouver, should download the HP 10Bii calculator app from https://inadaydevelopment.com/ to use during the course. If you plan to write your exam at the CEC, you DO NOT need to purchase a calculator. A physical calculator and/or an iPad with the app will be provided to you at your CEC exam.

If you choose to write your examination on a regularly scheduled examination date (at province wide locations), you will need a physical calculator for your exam. The calculator we recommend is the Hewlett Packard 10BII+ Calculator. There are many used calculators for sale on Facebook Marketplace, Craigslist, and other Buy/Sell websites, along with other vendors who sell the calculator, and we encourage you to explore these options. If necessary, you can also purchase the calculator from the RED Bookstore for $112 ($100.00 plus $12 tax). No refunds are available after purchase and supply is limited.

If you are unsure as to which exam option you will choose, consider delaying the purchase of a calculator and in the meantime, download the calculator app for use during the course.
