Step 1) Be an approved TREC Core Instructor with 3 years’ experience in teaching or training AND a college degree in the subject area of real estate or 5 years professional experience in the subject areas of Principles of Real Estate, Law of Agency, Law of Contracts and Real Estate Brokerage; or the equivalent of those requirements as determined by the Commission. If you are currently approved with these requirements, please go to step 2.
If you are a Core Instructor but have not been approved under these subject areas, submit a request to education@trec.state.tx.us for your file to be reviewed towards meeting these requirements. No fee is required.
If you are not a Core Instructor but want to become a TREC Core Instructor and can meet the above requirements, please complete the Instructor Application for Core and MCE Non-Elective Courses and submit to TREC with the $150.00 fee.
Step 2) Attend a train-the-trainer workshop at the Real Estate Center. Workshops are held twice a year. To determine if a workshop is currently scheduled, please visit 
http://recenter.tamu.edu/register. If a workshop is available, you may register at that time. If a workshop is not available please revisit the Real Estate Center web site periodically for updates.
Step 3) Receive a certification letter from TREC upon successful completion of the train-the-trainer workshop.
