Hi Greg,
I'm a broker in Covington, about 20 minutes north. I'm looking into taking classes at PLU, and am very familiar with the area. I've got a few resources for you. I can look for something myself or refer you to my property manager who is excellent at finding things. Feel free to PM me your number or email.

Hi Paal,
I would use Rockwell, I would say 90% of the brokers I have met use them and they have a great training program. https://www.rockwellinstitute.com/
The actual exam is much easier than their practice exams, but it prepares you well for when the day comes and you actually take the test.
Good Luck!
Hi Aaron,
I just enrolled in college last year myself. There's a shelf life of 15 years from when you ETS to use the GI bill, and I was getting close to losing it. I started off thinking I wanted to pursue business, but once I started taking classes I realized it wasn't all that it was cracked up to be. I found a school that offered a BS in Marketing and Entrepreneurship that looked much more in line with what I enjoyed. I think either would be good, but if you're not enjoying the classes you're taking you won't learn as much. Any degree is better than no degree so look over the class options and find something you will be passionate about.
Good Luck!
