## Resource

This podcast is made by Ran Chen, who holds an EA license, Insurance and Securities licenses (Series 6, 63, 65), and the CFP® designation. He is passionate about opening access to high-quality exam preparation resources and helping learners prepare more effectively for professional certification exams. In this episode you will learn: - The three core eligibility requirements are being at least 18, demonstrating honesty, and legal US residency. - The 135 hours of pre-license education must consist of two required courses, Real Estate Principles and Real Estate Practice, plus one elective. - The application process involves distinct steps for the exam and the license, which can be submitted simultaneously. - Fingerprinting via Live Scan is a mandatory part of the license application, not the exam application, and is tied to the honesty requirement. - A salesperson's license remains inactive and they cannot practice real estate until they are sponsored by and work under the supervision of a responsible broker.
