Informatička pismenost i dobro poznavanje rada na računalu su važan<br />

preduvjet, s obzirom da se brojni kontakti i kratke prezentacije prostora često ostvaruju<br />

preko računala / Computer literacy and knowing your way around a computer<br />

are certainly important conditions to fulfil, considering that numerous contacts<br />

and <strong>real</strong> <strong>estate</strong>’s short presentations are often preformed over computer<br />

partly true, but <strong>the</strong>re is a big difference between those local<br />

agents who have taken <strong>the</strong> initiative to start <strong>the</strong>ir own<br />

business by <strong>the</strong>mselves and those who have, prior to that,<br />

went through <strong>the</strong> adequate preparation and quality education.<br />

There are things that are inborn and can’t be<br />

learned, but <strong>the</strong>re are also things that every agent should<br />

know, and that are possible only if you apply yourself to<br />

proper and organized education. Many foreign countries<br />

have featured schools and courses for <strong>real</strong> <strong>estate</strong><br />

agents for a large number of years, and <strong>the</strong>se people<br />

became professionals in this field after completing that<br />

education. Fortunately, that is now also possible in several<br />

Croatian cities that feature institutions with organized<br />

education for those who want to become involved in this<br />

business. The agents’ training programmes usually last<br />

about three months, and one of <strong>the</strong> most successful and<br />

reliable private educational institutions is <strong>the</strong> Contemporary<br />

Education Centre in Split that, among many o<strong>the</strong>r<br />

programmes, also features a training programme for <strong>real</strong><br />

<strong>estate</strong> agents. The course is held over three and a half<br />

months, and it is based on <strong>the</strong> lectures that are provided<br />

by respected teachers that follow <strong>the</strong> newest trends<br />

from <strong>the</strong> <strong>real</strong> <strong>estate</strong> business. The course is being held in<br />

multi-media classrooms that are equipped with modern<br />

computers, and <strong>the</strong> programme includes learning about<br />

<strong>the</strong> basis of civil engineering and construction standards,<br />

becoming familiar with tax laws and o<strong>the</strong>r laws, as well<br />

as learning how to organize ownership transfers and work<br />

with clients. The proof of success and <strong>the</strong> education’s<br />

professionalism lies within 800 satisfied agents who have<br />

successfully completed this centre’s course. Besides <strong>the</strong><br />

Contemporary Education Centre in Split, we must also<br />

certainly point out <strong>the</strong> Open University in Zagreb, which<br />

<strong>offer</strong>s a similar programme that lasts merely two months.<br />

It must be mentioned that all <strong>the</strong>se completed courses<br />

will be registered into your work certificate, and <strong>the</strong>y<br />

have been approved by <strong>the</strong> Ministry of Science, Culture<br />

and Sports. The required conditions for <strong>the</strong>se courses are<br />

completed high-school education, while <strong>the</strong> required<br />

documents include school reports, birth certificate,<br />

nationality certificate and a small photograph. These<br />

courses’ prices are very accessible – depending on <strong>the</strong><br />

institution, <strong>the</strong>y come between 3000 and 5000 kunas,<br />

and that’s <strong>real</strong>ly not that much when you consider that<br />

<strong>the</strong>se occupations are registered into your work certificate.<br />

The lectures are also held at <strong>the</strong> Croatian Chamber<br />

of Economics in Zagreb, as well as in o<strong>the</strong>r county<br />

centres if necessary. Naturally, for those who have a<br />

serious intention of getting into this business and want<br />

maximum education, <strong>the</strong>re are schools in o<strong>the</strong>r countries<br />

that are available, but that also has its own price.<br />

Considering <strong>the</strong> new law, <strong>real</strong> <strong>estate</strong> deals will have to<br />

be preformed by those people that possess necessary<br />

education and have passed <strong>the</strong> professional exam, so<br />

bravely plunge into this course and become a professional<br />

agent – it is bound to be worth it.<br />
