Taking the leap into a career in real estate is a big decision. It’s exciting, yes, but it also deserves careful thought, especially when it comes to education. Quality training shapes confidence, preparedness, and readiness for the real world, not just exam success.
That’s where REAA (Real Estate Academy Australia) makes a mark.
Many academies offer courses; REAA offers an experience built around affordability, practical learning, and genuine support. Let’s unpack what makes us stand out, from pricing and course structure to entry access and student wellbeing.
1. Competitive Pricing
The Value of Affordable Education
REAA’s philosophy is straightforward: education shouldn’t be a luxury. The academy’s pricing reflects an aim to empower rather than exclude. It offers real estate, finance, and business qualifications tailored to different budgets and career paths.
Course Packages for Every Budget
Options range from budget-friendly packages to comprehensive upgrade bundles and priority grading. Whether someone wants the essentials or extra support and speed, REAA’s course structure adapts to their needs.
Best Price Guarantee
The best price guarantee provides an additional layer of assurance. Transparent, no-hidden-fee pricing builds trust and contrasts with programs that add unexpected costs later on.
2. Course Structure
Nationally Accredited Units
The courses are nationally accredited and compliant with regulatory requirements in each state or territory. That means qualifications are valid and industry-recognised wherever a student goes.
Comprehensive Learning Resources
Each course features a well-rounded mix of learning tools, including e-learning modules, learner guides, instructional videos, fact sheets, and more. These aren’t just glossed-over PDFs; they’re designed to be engaging and help different learning styles.
Two-Part Assessment Approach
Assessments combine theory and practice:
- Knowledge Assessment: multiple-choice and short-answer questions.
- Practical Skills Assessment: real-world simulations with documents, templates, and role plays.
Simulated Workplace Experience
Role-plays, industry-standard templates, and real-scenario training bring classroom learning into line with real job expectations, helping students build confidence before their first professional role.
Progressive Learning Model
Courses follow a step-by-step structure. Each unit stays locked until the one before it is submitted. It’s designed this way to keep learners focused and fully engaged with the material, without jumping ahead too quickly.
3. Entry Criteria
No Formal Prerequisites
You don’t need any previous qualifications to get started. All you need is a device with internet access and a webcam. You’ll also need to create a USI (Unique Student Identifier), which takes only a few minutes. That’s it. The platform is designed to be accessible, especially for first-timers or anyone making a career switch.
LLN and Digital Literacy Assessment
A pre-enrolment LLN (Language, Literacy, and Numeracy) and digital literacy assessment help tailor support to each student’s capability, rather than limiting access.
4. Student Counselling & Support
Commitment to Student Wellbeing
REAA recognises the reality: life doesn’t pause during study. Providing support beyond academics demonstrates a commitment to student success.
Partnership with Australian Counselling Service (ACS)
Free, short-term counselling via ACS is available to all students. Services can be booked online, typically within 48 hours.
Accessible, Confidential, and Convenient
Sessions are private, held via Zoom, and students choose from a diverse pool of counsellors. Booking is straightforward, via QR code or the student handbook portal.
Designed to Remove Personal Barriers to Success
This on-demand, confidential support helps students manage stress, personal challenges, and maintain balance, helping them stay on track academically.
