Over January and February, you can join CREA for a virtual CIPS Institute that features instructors from both sides of the border. 

The REALTOR^® Cooperation Policy takes effect on Jan. 3, and CREB^® is getting you ready for it. The 10 Alberta real estate boards have established a harmonized rule and approach to fulfill the requirements of CREA's policy, which states, "Boards and Associations operating MLS^® Systems must adopt and enforce this policy in their MLS^® System Rules or an equivalent policy."

The Canadian Real Estate Association (CREA) has recently named Janice Myers as their new Chief Executive Officer (CEO), effective Jan. 2, 2024.
