Big News: A Face-2-Face Blended Learning Option 

Comes To The e-Agent Hercules System!



 

As my old boss, U.S. Airforce General Frank Dillon used to say "The difficult we do today, the impossible just takes a little longer". Apparently, thirty years later this truism still holds.

We have been providing online REA approved CPD for over a decade now and improving our delivery systems all along the way. We have gone from using other people's online learning platforms; taking in tons of suggestions; feedback and requested improvements, all the way to now, finally presenting course materials on our 100% in-house developed Hercules platform. But, we are not done!

It is now time, given a hopefully waning Covid pandemic, to focus on letting people have a more interactive blended experience.

We are calling it: "Hercules Office Hours."

  • The Hercules Office Hours experience is with no additional cost and is not a requirement of mandatory course completion.
  • Each week, beginning in February 2022, e-Agent will host two 1-hour online sessions (like Zoom, but even easier to use). The first hour weekly will cover a specific portion of the mandatory coursework and allow for direct interaction between participants and our trainers.
  • The second hour weekly will be devoted to interactive discussion of any mandatory materials, allowing for questions/input from learners, at various stages of course completions.
  • An email with additional details and a question submission form, will be provided late in January.
  • As this new initiative allows for learner-to-learner as well as learner to trainer interaction, it truly meets the best description of face-2-face training.
We Are Pumped!

Why The Rules & Regulations Of The REA Should Actually Please Agents...

  It is important to consider the relationship between regulatory requirements and successful marketing.  Customers and clients see professional behaviour as a positive sign, when seeking an agent. It is essential for agents to be aware of what they can and cannot do in order to maintain their license.  The New Zealand Real Estate Authority has specific guidelines that must be followed by all licensed real estate agents. These guidelines are there to protect both parties involved in the transaction, which includes customers, and vendors alike.  Agents should keep up-to-date with these regulations so they know exactly what is expected of them at all times. However, the bigger picture and from those of us currently on the "Front Line" or relegated to commenting on the ever changing real estate marketplace is very different from the experience of many Kiwi agents/salespeople. For far too many, the REA rules; regulations and codes of conduct requirements, just feel like...
