"We will have educated close to 4000 by years end and we are pleased our growth is at a manageable pace. We needed the summer to regroup. We hear everyday from Appraiser and Mortgage Professionals." says Ms. Kerry Mitchell, President of Green Real Estate Education. Asked why the company is growing so quickly, Mitchell says," we feel keeping the course course under $100 per student is crucial. This includes the manual, A LOGO TO USE and certification." Even our Home Inspection Division is growing. Bert Henderson, Director of Education for the Home Inspection Division says, " We hope to train over 1000 home inspectors by the end of 2009. We are already palnning our course for the construction and facilities people. Everyone is hungry for education. I have been an educator for years and students see my push for energy efficiency was important then and is important now." The company's "Green Leadership" certification is the company's first level in the Real Estate Environmental and Energy Education Certification Series. The content will become more techincal next year as their second level will be written next year. Their course series will be created over the next 5 years. Mitchell states cost to students is important. " No one in the industry can afford to pay over $100 for anything in these times. They are having a difficult time paying their membership renewal dues, and our courses are very stimulating and exciting and offers a topic very much on everyone's mind."

Green Real Estate Education has 8 instructors throughout the country to cut down on company and board expenses for bringing in the class. Mitchell, while running the marketing and the company, still teaches." I love it. It keeps me in the middle of things. I see many of my friends having a hard time and I feel good I am able to bring them something to positively affect their markets." Asked about her instructors, she says, "Sean Greco, is in South Florida teaching our course to Coldwell Banker and at Miama Dade College beginning in October. Dr. Cindy Tant is teaching in the Panhandle, Clint Klepp teaches in Wisconsin builds "green" and does radio talk shows. Kevin Hauber is teaching in Hawaii and California."

Asked if Mitchell feels competition with the course the National Association of Realtors is now offering, She says, "I asked them to offer "green" education 2 years ago and they ignored me, then they called and interviewed me. I just wish they wouldn't charge their members so much money. It just isn't fair in this market" she says. "Our course is under $100." As Sean says "Money is an issue for any education today." Sean states he is looking forward to teaching Coldwell Banker in South Florida and at Miami Dade College. "We are not in a hurry to go on-line, and the energy in our class is so contagious." Sean enjoys being in the classroom. "Some still like education face to face." He says his motivation for "going green" is his young son, "I care about his future."
