Blake Garrett, CEO of Aceable, shared his excitement about the acquisition, stating, "The addition of Real Estate Institute allows us to enter Illinois, one of the nation's largest real estate markets.

What About Real Estate Institute's Current Course Offerings?

Real Estate Institute will continue to provide top-notch licensing and continuing education courses for real estate, mortgage, and insurance professionals. We do not anticipate any significant changes to the course offering at this time. However, with Aceable's focus on convenient online learning, in-person training for individual enrollments in the Chicagoland area will come to an end on November 1, 2024.

But don't worry! Live, instructor-led webinars will still be available. You can continue to enjoy engaging, expert-led learning from the comfort of your home or office.

Will Aceable Offer Mortgage and Insurance Education?

We’re excited to announce that Aceable will launch its pre-licensing and continuing education courses in Illinois and California in February 2025, with mortgage courses following in March!
