Continuing Education to Learn How to Blog?

By
Real Estate Agent with Suburban Village Realty

So.. I'm checking my Las Vegas Real Estate e-mail account. (Yes I'm licensed in two states which is absolutely mind boggling to say the least and the traditions vs. common sense is worthy of a book.) Obviously we all know what happens when the local association gets ahold of our e-mail address -- it gets sold to everybody and anybody but I sincerely have to appreciate this ad that was sent to my Las Vegas e-mail account:

Is there a state out there that gives CE credit for a class on blogging? Obviously, anybody here on Active Rain that happens to read this understands the importance of blogging -- much like many of us realized the importance of the internet for real estate marketing. (Our first Las Vegas website was in 1997.)

Being licensed in two states can certainly bring an appreciation to different concepts in internet real estate marketing. The fact that Nevada is allowing CE credit for real estate agents to learn a new and what can be a complex yet very effective means of advertising says a lot for a real estate division very focused on protecting the consumer.

LOL! No, I probably need to though. I actually have another blog that I started in 2005 that is more on the numbers and statistical side for real estate. Pretty boring compared to some of these AR blogs but I'm more of a statistical/numbers guy then a writer and handle more investors.

Anyways -- I'm pretty sure that the welcoming guide to AR covers everything taught in the class and it's free! But.. for real estate agents that do not even know what AR is, then they need to take the class above or something similar to wake up to the new world of real estate marketing.
