How Arizona online real estate school works
We’re glad you’re interested in getting your AZ Salesperson’s License with us!
Here’s how to get your real estate license in Arizona online.
Step #1
Complete all 90 hours of instruction online
This is the “main” course that every future Salesperson in Arizona must complete. At 90 hours long, it will be where you spend the majority of real estate training time. Topics covered include real estate law, government regulations, insurance, fair housing and much more! This self paced online real estate course, may be completed in as little as 9 days.
Step #2
Complete the 6 hour Contract Writing Course
The Contract Writing Course (CWC), also know as the Introduction To Contract Writing, is required for all first time agents. Even those “transfering” from out of state. It’s Arizona’s opportunity to teach agents operating here about real estate contracts as they relate to our state. This self paced course may be completed in one sitting or broken up as needed.
Step #3
Pass your school final exam (state required)
Mimics the official test and acts as a gauge to determine your readiness. You will receive 2 attempts. If you do not pass, you will be issued a Comprehenisve Study Guide and a final 3rd exam attempt. This test must be taken at one of our Approved Testing Centers and an additional proctor fee may apply.
Step #4
Pass The Pearson Vue® Real Estate Exam (Official Exam)
This is the official exam and must be taken in person at an official testing location. You can find a list of testing locations on Pearson Vue’s website. You must acheive at 75% or higher to pass. Should you fail, you must wait 24 hours before retesting.
Step #5
Find A Brokerage to Work For
*Before you “activate” your license, you must have a designated broker in Arizona that will allow you to work under their brokerage. This is an Arizona law and is commonly referred to as “hanging your license”. Simply put, all real estate agent salespersons must work for a broker. The state wants you to make this arrangement and prove it, prior to becoming an active agent.
Step #6
Activate Your License With The Arizona Department Of Real Estate!
Finally, you will contact the Arizona Department Of Real Estate to activate your license! During this process, there will be several forms to complete as well as ensuring that your finger print background check has been completed.
*Please Note: This is a simplified synopsis of the process to obtain your Arizona Real Estate License online. There are also certain eligibility and finger print requirements to become a real estate agent. You may view a complete list of requirements on ADRE’s website.

Arizona Real Estate License Online FAQ
Can You Get Your Arizona Real Estate License Online?
Although Arizona took more time than other states, the regulations were modified in 2019 to permit the complete delivery of real estate training through online platforms. Additionally, in 2021, this provision was expanded to include contract writing courses. However, it is important to note that an in-person component is still mandatory for testing purposes. Learn more about the state’s decision to allow students to get their Arizona real estate license online.
Do You Charge For The School Final Exam?
We (American Realty Academy) do not charge for school final exam attempts. However, the proctoring location you take the exam at, will most likely charge a proctoring fee. View a list of our current proctor locations.
What If I Fail The School Final Exam?
While rare, sometimes students do require additional study and testing. After failing the first attempt of the school final exam, the student will have the opportunity to self study and then make a second school final exam attempt. If the second school final exam is failed, then the student will complete a Comprehensive Study Guide to address weak areas. At which point, a 3rd final exam will be given. Should the student fail the 3rd attempt, they will be required to retake the 90 hour course.
How Soon Can I Finish?
You may finish in as little as 14 days. Arizona Department Of Real Estate requirements restrict your learning to 10 hours per day. Meaning, you may complete your 90 hour Salesperson course and 6 hour CWC in as little as 10 days, followed by school & state testing, then license activation.
How Long Do I Have To Finish?
Due to the ever changing nature of real estate and state requirements, we are always updating our material. With this in mind, we provide you with 6 months to complete the courses that you are enrolled in (including the school final exam).
Are The Classes Held On A Specific Schedule?
Apart from the Virtual Group Tutoring Course (an optional live instructor-led class held once a month for Gold Plan students), all of our real estate courses are entirely on demand. This means that you can take them at your own convenience and at a pace that suits your schedule.
How Soon Can I Start?
