4 hours of credit took 7.5 hours to complete. Way too much content. Also there were many examples of dumb mistakes like interchanging words such as: advise vs advice… transaction vs translation … principle vs principal and so on. It makes you look uneducated and here you are in the education field.

Bigger is not always Better!

Unfortunately, you sold out! 360 training was not the answer. I don’t need a voice to read me my class information. I’m a grown adult and I can read! The fact that the only way to get rid of the talking was to turn off my volume instead of a mute button that you could’ve created, but you didn’t. I’ve been a Van Ed client/customer whatever you wanna call me for over 30 years and I will not be returning to take any more classes. I will just finish up with what I’ve paid for and then find another alternative.

We appreciate your feedback and are sorry the 360 training didn't meet your expectations. We acknowledge your frustration with the audio feature and the absence of a mute button. We value your long-term patronage and will review your comments as we improve our courses.

Interesting subject for Coloradans

Great course, interesting subject, tests got a little bit picky for a realtor vs a law student. Seems like realtors should be understanding concepts as opposed to multiple choice questions with the exact date and year a rule was put into effect. This is something that you will never remember afterwards as opposed to what the rules relate to in practice.

Thank you for your feedback. We appreciate you bringing this to our attention. We're glad you found the course interesting. We'll review the test questions to ensure they align with the learning objectives for realtors, focusing on practical application rather than memorization of specific dates.

Courses are way too long. Van Ed platform was better.

A 1 credit survey course took about 10 hrs!
25 CREC update took 11.5 hrs!

Not a good experience this time with the new company

A class that should only take 4 hours took me 5.5 hours. Way too much unnecessary information covered. Definitely not like it used to be.

The main part of the course was OK, but I found the last section to be completely not about the subject and a review of an ethics course.

CREC update 2025

Class was very informative, however it was also very time consuming. It is 4 credit hours and a required yearly class, but there is no way it can actually be completed in that time frame. Plan for more time than 4 hours.

I took a 4 hour continuing education course that took 8 hours. This was deceptive, exhaustive and frustrating and we were required to complete it within a shorter time frame than I remember in the past. So much better to take this course in person but hard to find anyone doing in person ever since covid.

Class takes way too long to complete.

I know you have to adhere to the requirements of the Colorado Real Estate Departments, but the class as it stands cannot be completed in less that 6 hours if you follow all of the parts of the class. That is way too long for a 4hour credit class you are forced to take to keep your license. Your class is fine it is the subject matter and the amount that is required.

Thank you for your feedback. We acknowledge your concern about the course length relative to the credit hours. We recognize the subject matter's intensity and the time commitment needed for license renewal can be a lot. We'll review this to see where we can improve.

Rated 5 out of 5 stars

Ease of use and works with my schedule. What more could you ask for?

I do the lessons on my time and when I am available, not when the class teacher is available. This is the best of both worlds. I get to complete my required CE at the same as using my free time schedule to complete them.
