Upgrade FAQs

What is an Upgrade Course? 
It’s a shorter course designed to add the extra units needed to move from your Registration Certificate to a Full Real Estate Licence — without repeating what you’ve already done. 

Who is this course for? 
You must have completed the QLD Registration Certificate under the CPP41419 training package which was introduced in 2021. If you completed your course under any earlier real estate training package, you’ll need to enrol in the Full Licence course with the possibility to apply for RPL (Recognition of Prior Learning).

Can I upgrade from a Resident Letting Agent Licence? 
Yes — call us to find out more about upgrading from the CPP41419 Resident Letting Agent course. 

How long do I have to finish the course? 
You have 6 months, but many students finish faster depending on their availability. 

Are there exams? 
No. Our course includes 6 open-book assessment sets, completed via our online learner portal with trainer support. 

How do I apply for my licence? 
Once you’ve completed the course, submit your qualification and Statement of Attainment to the Queensland OFT as part of your application. Processing takes approximately 4–6 weeks.
