We had the opportunity to speak to over 30 case managers with the Alabama Department of Rehabilitation Services (ADRS). We were able to determine how we could partner together to share the workforce programs that would meet the individual needs of the clients they serve.

It's that time again! We are preparing for our Spring, Pre-License Real Estate Course!! If you have been thinking about diving into the world of real estate, this is the first step. If you're interested... Take that first step! Don't forget to share and let someone else know!

Having industry professionals who take time to come and share valuable information about their field of expertise is greatly appreciated. Thank you Mr. Gus Ruiz-Hernandez, Senior Loan Officer at Union Home Mortgage, for taking time to speak with our Real Estate class.
