The Estate Agency Affairs Board (EAAB) made it compulsory that all agents acquire a full qualification. It is the first step in fulfilling the EAAB’s legal requirements. The other requirements include passing of the Professional Designation Exam (PDE) and ongoing Continuing Professional Development (CPD).
Agents who enter the profession are also required to complete a full 12-month internship and a logbook in addition to completing the qualification and writing the PDE.
