The Alabama Real Estate Educators Association (AREEA) will be offering instructor trainings this year in addition to the Commission’s instructor trainings. The Commission always offers six-hour IDWs, but AREEA will offer three-hour IDWs hoping this will provide more flexibility for instructors and increase engagement during the sessions.
