The Virginia REALTOR® Institute Program curriculum consists of 10 courses that each student must complete successfully in order to earn the Graduate, REALTOR® Institute (GRI) designation. Eight classes are hosted by local associations across the state, and two classes are available online. Online courses are available for immediate enrollment. The full schedule and description of courses can all be found on the GRI web page.
Students working towards the GRI designation have the additional benefit of obtaining continuing education and/or post license credit through their coursework. The course curriculum contains over 40 hours of continuing education credits and 30 hours of post license (PL) credits. That adds up to a great value… first year REALTORS® can complete their PL requirements and earn a designation at the same time.
Current students may be curious about their progress towards completion of the GRI designation. Want to see your GRI Class Summary? Click here to see the courses you need, or contact us with specific questions.
