Courses Written for PA's 2006-2008
Real Estate License Renewal Period
For the
Pennsylvania real estate continuing education cycle that ended May 31, 2008,
Joe Zlomek completed writing and designing these courses:
More than 4,000 real estate salespeople and brokers licensed in
Pennsylvania participated in one or more of these courses
between November 2007 and July 2008.
Zlomek is constantly researching topics in the business of real estate
that he hopes will be useful in course material he creates and teaches. If you have expertise in
a topic and would like to volunteer
your knowledge so others can benefit, please contact
Joe.
