What's New
Accelerated
Real Estate course
Starting in October, Southwestern
Community College will provide a fast
track to a career in Real Estate through
its new weekend Accelerated Brokerage
Preparation course.
Scheduled from October 14 through November
19, the intensive 6-weekend program will
prepare candidates for the North Carolina
Real Estate Licensing Exam. The class
will meet on Saturday from 8:30 a.m. to
5 p.m. and on Sunday from 1 to 5 p.m.
at the SCC Macon Campus Annex.
SCC instructor Fil Powell will lead the
class. Powell, owner of Powell Properties
in Morganton, has over 21 years of experience
teaching real estate and appraisal courses.
A resident of Dillsboro, he also teaches
real estate fundamentals, real estate
math and provisional brokerage classes
at SCC and has spearheaded this new curriculum
offering.
"The real estate market is really
vibrant in Jackson, Macon and Swain counties.
It's no longer a seasonal market; it's
wide open all the time," Powell said.
"While there is a great demand in
the market, we have the same demand for
real estate practitioners throughout the
region. At SCC we're making every effort
to fill the need and meet the demand."
According to Powell, although the course
is just over a month long, the class will
meet state regulations required for real
estate brokers.
"Over this short period of time,
the students will receive in-depth instruction
and will earn the 75 state mandated hours
needed," he said.

ext. 274. To register, contact the SCC
Office of Admissions at 828.586.4091 or
