Colorado EcoBroker Certified Training: Green Market Advantage: Day 3, Part 2/2

EcoBrokerThe EcoBroker Certified training program is designed to give real estate agents the tools and information for promoting healthier, cost effective and environmentally responsible practices in real estate. The training is provided by EcoBroker International. The instructor is John Stovall. The class was held at Douglas-Elbert Realtor Association in Colorado Springs.

This post outlines the learning objectives for the material covered in the second half of the third day of the three day course. I am taking the course again to become an instructor for the EcoBroker Designation. The training is divided into three days with each day covering a specific module. Today’s session is titled EcoBroker Green Market Advantage.  

This is the final part of the training. There were a total of 13 agents in the class not including me that received their EcoBroker Certified Designation.  Visit the EcoBroker International website for more information on EcoBroker Designation.

Congrats on going for the EcoBroker Certified Training! Just checked out the Green HOMES logo. The statistics should convince people this is here to stay, and just one more tool--one very comprehensive tool--for Realtors to use in helping to bring healthy homes and the people that love them, together. Thanks John.
