How do I Qualify? Agents can register for individual sessions covering specific areas of interest or can make a commitment to pursue the CRIA designation. Upon completion participants receive a "Certificate of Designation," a CRIA lapel pin, and the right to add the letters CRIA to their letterhead, business cards and other correspondence. The right to use the CRIA logo is contingent on the agent’s continued RIAOC membership.
When are the Sessions? Information on the date, time, location and subject of each session, held twice a month, is available on our web site, on flyers at the Education table at each general meeting, and in the RIAOC Gold Sheet.
What are the Sessions about? The series covers the practical aspects of Commercial & Investment real estate. It is intended to help participants become more knowledgeable and professional in their dealing with clients and in transactions with other agents while serving their clients needs. Each session will be 2½ to 3 hours depending on the material, the instructor and the question/answer period. Sessions are repeated, so that if one is missed, it can be attended at another time.*
