FREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS

No. While real estate agents and mortgage brokers work side-by-side, they require separate licenses. Relo provides pre-licensing education specifically for real estate professionals.

Absolutely. Our online real estate course is 100% self-paced, designed for busy schedules. You can’t work as a real estate professional until you’re officially licensed in Alberta.

Yes. Create your myRECA account first. RECA will issue your Contact ID, and you'll need that number to enrol in a RECA-recognized course with Relo. You'll also need an approved RECA Eligibility Application. Apply early: RECA doesn't publish processing times.

Yes. The Fundamentals course covers economic principles and factors influencing the Alberta real estate market. The primary goal is to help you pass the RECA exam and become a competent residential real estate professional.

Currently, ReadyEngine™ is focused on helping real estate professionals get licensed in residential real estate. We do not offer condominium management or property management courses at this time. All students must first complete the Fundamentals of Real Estate before choosing a practice area.

To become a licensed real estate agent in Alberta you must first meet basic eligibility requirements with the Real Estate Council of Alberta (RECA), complete pre-licensing real estate courses like the Fundamentals of Real Estate and Practice of Residential Real Estate, pass the required exams, and then register with a licensed brokerage. For full details, visit the Relo Alberta Licensing Pathway page.

You do not book the pre-licensing exam through Relo. Once you complete your course requirements, we notify RECA. Next, log into your myRECA account to schedule and pay for your official pre-licensing exam directly with them.

The exam fee is $235 per attempt, and you have two attempts. Both must be completed within three months of your course provider marking you ready in myRECA.

Effective July 1, 2026, all RECA pre-licensing exams must be written in person at an authorized Pearson VUE test centre. If you booked an online exam before July 1, 2026, you may still complete it online.

Course requirements: ReadyRating™ 4, passed two practice exams, and watched all video lessons.

RECA gives you 3 months from course completion and 2 attempts. That window is RECA's, not Relo's. It's the reason we recommend booking at ReadyRating Level 4 rather than as soon as you finish the lessons: you want the clock to start when you're actually ready.

You can aim to get licensed within 8 to 12 weeks based on a disciplined studying pace and meet all RECA requirements. ReadyEngine™ helps you focus on what you need to know after it learns what you already know. Remember to factor in the time it’ll take for your background check and RECA’s processing.

You must meet RECA's eligibility requirements before you can enrol in pre-licensing education. This typically includes being at least 18, having a Canadian high school diploma (or equivalent), being eligible to work in Canada, and completing a certified criminal record check.

Before you enrol with Relo, you'll also need a myRECA account and your RECA Contact (CON) ID.

Search for a brokerage, pass your RECA exam, get sponsored, and apply for license activation.

We are an officially recognized RECA course provider. We use your RECA ID to securely link your Relo course progress to your official myRECA account, which is necessary for you to be eligible to write the final exam.

Unlike the previous Relo platform where each course length was 75 hours, there’s no set timeframe with ReadyEngine™. Our courses are concept mastery driven, meaning you progress by demonstrating understanding of each topic rather than spending a set number of hours.

If you are enrolled in this RECA-recognized residential real estate course, you will get free access to Relo’s new platform. You can still login to the previous version of Relo until February 28, 2026.

Fundamentals of Real Estate and Practice of Residential Real Estate courses are available on ReadyEngine™. The Fundamentals course is a mandatory prerequisite before you can take any specialized real estate course or exam.

This course is for anyone who has completed and passed Fundamentals of Real Estate and is continuing toward a residential licence. It's where the core knowledge becomes the day-to-day work: valuing property, spotting defects, and handling residential transactions. It's also well suited to existing agents moving into the residential sector.

This course is ideal for individuals planning to start a real estate career in Alberta. It's well suited for beginners with no prior real estate experience who need core knowledge as part of the Alberta real estate licensing process. Relo's RECA-recognized online course helps learners prepare for the Fundamentals exam with personalized lessons, 100+ video lessons, 1,100+ practice questions, 450+ flashcards, unlimited practice exams, and ReadyRating exam-readiness tracking.

No, we don’t and we honestly don’t need to. Other Alberta real estate schools charge extra for prep. Our online pre-licensing courses include unlimited, ReadyEngine™-powered exam preparation as a standard feature. Your tailored study plan is one continuous, intelligent prep session. It’s designed to help you pass the exam confidently on the first attempt.

You do not book the pre-licensing exam through Relo. Once you complete your course requirements, we notify RECA. Next, log into your myRECA account to schedule and pay for your official pre-licensing exam directly with them.

Course requirements: ReadyRating™ 4, passed two practice exams, and watched all video lessons.

If you’re retaking your exam, ReadyEngine™ is the most efficient way to prepare. It assesses your knowledge to quickly identify the specific areas that caused trouble before. From there, it creates a new, targeted study path to close those gaps. That means less time re-studying what you already know and more time strengthening what needs improvement.

RECA gives you 3 months from course completion and 2 attempts. That window is RECA's, not Relo's. It's the reason we recommend booking at ReadyRating Level 4 rather than as soon as you finish the lessons: you want the clock to start when you're actually ready.

Our system is perfect for retakes. It assesses your knowledge to find the specific gaps that tripped you up before. Then, it builds a tailored study plan that focuses only on those areas, saving you time.

No. Much of the course content carried over from our previous platform and remains relevant. RECA primarily updated the structure of the blueprints (reorganizing, combining, or simplifying learning outcomes) in 2025. They did not add new material.

No, we don’t and we honestly don’t need to. Other Alberta real estate schools charge extra for prep. Our online pre-licensing courses include unlimited, ReadyEngine™-powered exam preparation as a standard feature. Your tailored study plan is one continuous, intelligent prep session. It’s designed to help you pass the exam confidently on the first attempt.

Your study journey can start in two ways to help lead you to the ideal exam date you want to set for yourself. You can take our comprehensive Initial Assessment to get an immediate, detailed baseline of your knowledge. The assessment can take about 90 minutes to complete. Or, if you prefer to just jump in, you can skip the assessment. The platform will then build your Concept Mastery grid as you go. It’ll use your performance in the adaptive quizzes to discover your strengths and weaknesses.

Our ReadyRating score gives you a real-time prediction of your odds of passing based on your performance across all concepts. It helps you know when you’re actually ready to schedule your exam — not just when you feel ready. This saves you time and money on retake fees by making sure you walk in confident and prepared.

You will start with an initial assessment. The results will help the platform build your unique study plan to tackle only the remaining topics.

The content has been updated to be cleaner, more direct, and better aligned with the new 2025 exams. RECA updated the structure (reorganizing, combining, or simplifying learning outcomes).

Our system is perfect for retakes. It assesses your knowledge to find the specific gaps that tripped you up before. Then, it builds a tailored study plan that focuses only on those areas, saving you time.

ReadyEngine™ personalizes how you study it. Riley, our 24/7 study assistant, answers questions as you go. Different jobs, different tools.

You have two choices: finish your course(s) on the previous version of Relo, or move over to ReadyEngine™ at no cost.

The ReadyRating™ is a live composite score that runs from 1 to 5 and updates after every study session. At Level 5, the data says you're ready to book your exam. That's also when the Pass Guarantee applies. Sit your exam at Level 5 and don't pass? We'll give you a full refund.

• ReadyRating™ 5: Greater than 80% probability of passing. Pass Guarantee applies.
• ReadyRating™ 4: 61% to 80% probability of passing.
• ReadyRating™ 3: 51% to 60% probability of passing. Considered the absolute minimum.

Your ReadyRating™ reflects demonstrated performance across exam-aligned concepts, not just content completion.

ReadyEngine™ is Relo’s readiness intelligence platform for real estate pre-licensing education in Alberta. It tracks your performance across exam-aligned concepts, builds a personalized study plan around your target exam date, and produces a live ReadyRating™ that tells you when you're ready to book. There is updated course content that matches the 2025 RECA exam blueprints.

Adaptive learning is one of the capabilities inside ReadyEngine™. The platform uses it to route you through content based on your performance. But the goal isn't personalization. It's a defensible, data-driven answer to whether you'll pass.

Our price includes your course material and access to ReadyEngine™. This will help you prepare for your licensing exam. This is the only fee you’ll pay to us.

Please be aware that you will have separate, mandatory fees paid directly to RECA (the regulator). These include your certified criminal record check and the fee for your final licensing exam. Those are regulatory fees, not Relo fees.

Bundling is the most efficient way to buy. Here’s the breakdown:

By bundling, you get both required RECA-recognized courses for half the regular price.

Note: Per RECA regulations, you must complete the Fundamentals course first. Your access to the Practice course will open immediately upon completion.

Getting your real estate license in Alberta typically costs $2,960 to $4,485 for the licensing stage, including your real estate courses, RECA exam fees, eligibility application, licensing fees, insurance, and assurance fund fees. If you include first-year business costs like association memberships, marketing, technology, and brokerage expenses, new agents should budget around $5,500 to $9,000 in total.

The main upfront costs include real estate course tuition, the $235 RECA licensing exam, the $350 eligibility application, and approximately $800 in RECA licensing, insurance, and assurance fund fees after passing your exams. Choosing a bundled course option and preparing well for your exam can help reduce your overall cost and avoid retake fees.

No. The “Full Single Course” or “Full Access Bundle” is a one-time purchase. It gives you full access to score a ReadyRating of 4 or higher to help determine when you’re ready for the RECA pre-licensing exam.

You’ll see some schools with a lower up-front price, but they often sell you an “exam prep” package, a “pass guarantee,” or a “course extension” as an extra add-on.

We believe in all-in-one value. Our pre-licensing education includes quizzes and practice exams. These are part of a learning experience designed for you. This will help you prepare better for the pre-licensing exam.

No. RECA requires you to complete and pass the Fundamentals of Real Estate course and exam first. Then you can enrol in a practice course like Residential, where you'll need to complete and pass the course and exam.

You can buy them together in the Real Estate Bundle on Relo. The Practice course unlocks as soon as you complete and pass the Fundamentals course and exam, with no re-registering in between.

Yes. Fundamentals of Real Estate is RECA's mandatory prerequisite for all pre-licensing education in Alberta. You must complete Fundamentals before you can enrol in Practice of Residential Real Estate. If you completed Fundamentals through another RECA-recognized provider, you are still eligible to enrol in Practice of Residential Real Estate through Relo. Your myRECA account is how we verify your completion status.

It depends on RECA’s timelines. Generally, you must complete your practice course and pass the exams within a specific window after completing Fundamentals. Check your myRECA account status first. If you are eligible to proceed, you can enrol immediately.

Your ReadyRating™ reflects demonstrated performance across exam-aligned concepts, not just content completion.

No. Much of the course content carried over from our previous platform and remains relevant. RECA primarily updated the structure of the blueprints (reorganizing, combining, or simplifying learning outcomes) in 2025. They did not add new material.

Yes. RECA updated the licensing exams for both Fundamentals of Real Estate and Practice of Residential Real Estate on December 1, 2025, introducing new 2025 Competency Exam blueprints for both courses. Relo rebuilt its course content to align with those updated blueprints before the launch.

Every lesson, question, and flashcard is mapped to a concept on the current RECA blueprint and weighted by how heavily the exam tests it. That weighting is not just organizational. It drives how ReadyEngine™ prioritizes your study plan and how your ReadyRating™ is calculated. Mastering a concept the exam tests heavily moves your score more than one it barely touches.

You are not studying a general overview of real estate. You are studying what the exam actually tests, in the order that matters most.

The content has been updated to be cleaner, more direct, and better aligned with the new 2025 exams. RECA updated the structure (reorganizing, combining, or simplifying learning outcomes).

The focused lessons are delivered through a flexible video player system. It accommodates three content types: video-based, PDF-based, and audio-based (podcast-style with on-screen captions).

Most RECA-recognized real estate courses measure how much you have completed. Relo measures whether you are ready to pass.

Every other school gives you a syllabus and tracks your progress through it. Relo's ReadyEngine™ identifies your specific knowledge gaps from day one, builds a study plan around them, and updates your ReadyRating™ in real time as you learn. You are not moving through a course at the same pace as everyone else. You are moving through a path built around what you personally do not know yet.

The result is not just faster studying. It is a score you can trust before you book. When your ReadyRating™ reaches Level 5, we back it with a full refund if you do not pass. No other Alberta real estate school makes that offer, because no other school has the system to support it.

Our pass rates since the rebuild reflect what happens when readiness replaces guesswork. See the current numbers on our Pass Rates page.

Official course purchases require tying your enrolment back to RECA.

Create your myRECA account, satisfy eligibility expectations, pay RECA’s applicable fees where required, and obtain your RECA Contact ID before you enrol in a priced Relo course—we need it to provision full course materials and synchronize progress with regulators.

Your roadmap starts from what you already know.

Begin with Relo’s Initial Assessment (about 90 minutes) so we can map Concept Mastery to the RECA exam blueprint—or jump in without it and let adaptive quizzes tighten the picture over time either way.

The platform allocates study toward genuine gaps: your daily plan updates as mastery grows, readiness signals improve, and your exam timeline gets sharper.

RECA dictates the sequencing—Fundamentals comes first.

If you intend to practise residential real estate afterwards, enrol in Practice of Residential Real Estate only after Fundamentals coursework and exams per RECA timelines.

Otherwise pick the residential bundle upfront if pricing savings line up—we’ll honour unlock rules accordingly.

Riley is Relo’s 24/7 study teammate built into your course.

Ask for plain-language explanations, walkthroughs on convoluted topics, clarification on wording, reinforcement practice, or quick navigation help—all without needing to coordinate live office hours unless you prefer that human complement.

If Relo confirms you reached ReadyRating Level 5 and you still don’t pass your official RECA exam, Relo honours a full refund toward your qualifying enrolment.

Specific eligibility and exclusions are spelled out wherever you enrol; the guarantee aligns with readiness evidence the platform establishes before exam day—not wishful pacing.

On ReadyEngine™, 96% of Relo learners are passing their exams.

That statistic reflects learner outcomes tied to preparation that measures readiness, not mere completion—and it applies to how Relo operates after the rebuilt platform rollout you read about elsewhere on this page.

Exact cohort definitions can shift as more learners finish; we publish what we’re seeing now so prospects can benchmark confidence, not nostalgia.

RECA’s public comparison tables lag behind the learning experience learners use today.

You may see percentages that reflect learner performance from a previous calendar window or completed before ReadyEngine™ landed. Those snapshots are authoritative for their period, but they are not updated in real time with every enrolment cohort.

For the fullest picture—including how readiness is measured today—read our pass rate messaging on this page and reach out if you still have questions.

Yes. You can complete an online real estate course in Alberta through a RECA-recognized education provider, then follow the official steps in myRECA to book and write your exam.

To get your real estate licence in Alberta, you generally follow RECA’s pathway: confirm eligibility, create your myRECA account, submit a criminal record check, complete RECA-recognized pre-licensing education, book and pass the RECA pre-licensing exam, secure a sponsoring brokerage, then submit your licensing application for activation.

RECA requires that you meet basic eligibility requirements such as being 18+, providing valid government ID, having a Canadian high school diploma (or equivalent), and being able to study and work in Canada. Requirements can change, so always confirm in your myRECA guidance and RECA documentation.

The biggest delays are usually: waiting to start the criminal record check, not planning study time consistently, and postponing the brokerage search until after the exam.

You must complete RECA-recognized pre-licensing education before writing the exam. Many learners complete Fundamentals of Real Estate first and then move into Practice of Residential Real Estate as part of the standard learning sequence.

You need a minimum passing grade of 70% on the RECA pre-licensing exam, and you have two attempts.

After you pass, you’ll finalize brokerage sponsorship documentation and complete the final application steps. Once RECA approves your application, your licence is activated and you can begin practicing.

Your myRECA account is your portal with the regulator. You’ll use it to manage key parts of the licensing process such as course enrolment steps, exam booking, and licensing administration. Once approved by RECA and your myRECA account is created, you’ll also receive your RECA Contact ID, which you’ll need to help register/upgrade to our paid courses.

Start your brokerage search while you’re studying. You’ll need an authorized Alberta brokerage to hold your licence, and interviewing early helps you avoid delays after you pass your exam.

Submit your criminal record check as early as possible after creating your myRECA account. It can take several weeks to process, and starting early helps prevent delays while you complete your education.

Both RECA-recognized courses required for an Alberta residential licence: Fundamentals of Real Estate and Practice of Residential Real Estate, bought once and studied on one adaptive platform.

This bundle is ideal for individuals pursuing a residential real estate license in Alberta, including beginners and those preparing for the RECA exams.

Unlike the previous Relo platform where each course length was 75 hours, there's no set timeframe with ReadyEngine™. Our courses are concept mastery driven, meaning you progress by demonstrating understanding of each topic rather than spending a set number of hours.

You can learn at your own pace, or if you already know some topics, our initial assessment helps you skip concepts you understand. The goal is to ensure you're truly ready for your exam and to receive a passing grade on the first try.

This course is for anyone who has completed and passed Fundamentals of Real Estate and is continuing toward a residential licence. It's where the core knowledge becomes the day-to-day work: valuing property, spotting defects, and handling residential transactions. It's also well suited to existing agents moving into the residential sector.

Once you complete the Fundamentals course, you have cleared the first major hurdle. You then enrol in a specialized practice course. The most common choice is Practice of Residential Real Estate. However, you can also choose Commercial, Rural, or Property Management based on your career goals.

Relo offers the Practice of Residential Real Estate course through ReadyEngine™. It provides you with a more tailored learning experience in preparation for your licensing exam.

This course is ideal for individuals planning to start a real estate career in Alberta. It's well suited for beginners with no prior real estate experience who need core knowledge as part of the Alberta real estate licensing process. Relo's RECA-recognized online course helps learners prepare for the Fundamentals exam with personalized lessons, 100+ video lessons, 1,100+ practice questions, 450+ flashcards, unlimited practice exams, and ReadyRating exam-readiness tracking.
