District to pilot Kaplan New Jersey real-estate prelicensing course at High School South
Summary
The district will pilot an asynchronous 75-hour Kaplan New Jersey real-estate prelicensing course this spring at High School South; Kaplan is offering a 50% discount and the course cost to students will be $164.50, with enrollments open to students 17 and older.
Curriculum presenters outlined a career-path pilot with Kaplan testing: the first course will be a New Jersey real-estate prelicensing program delivered asynchronously over 75 hours. The presenter said Kaplan will provide the course at a 50% discount and the student cost will be $164.50; students 17 or older may enroll and may take the certification exam after they turn 18.
The pilot is slated for High School South’s business academy this spring, with district guidance staff to share enrollment information with families; if the pilot succeeds, the district said it would consider expanding the option to all high schools the following year. Presenters emphasized the pilot is an optional, fee-based course intended to expose students to financial and consumer concepts useful after graduation.
