Local Agent Earns REALTOR e-PRO® Certification

2-11-08 – Joel Friday (Coon Rapids) of DMR Realty, Inc. (Ramsey) has successfully completed
the REALTOR e-PRO course to become one of a select few real estate professionals to earn the
prestigious certification offered through the National Association of REALTORS.®

The REALTOR e-PRO certification course is an educational program unlike any other
professional certification or designation course available, comprehensive and interactive. It is
specifically designed to provide real estate professionals with the technology tools needed to
assist consumers in the purchase or sale of a home.

With more than 70% of consumers beginning their real estate research on the Internet, e-PRO
certified agents have the experience and expertise to meet the demands of today’s buyer and
seller.

“The real estate industry has undergone a fundamental change over the past several years,” said
Joel Friday of DMR Realty, Inc.. “A majority of consumers are taking the time to conduct their own
research prior to contacting an agent. In turn, real estate professionals must be knowledgeable of
how technology can assist them in serving the needs of the buying and selling public.”

The exclusive REALTOR e-PRO certification course is presented entirely online and certifies real
estate agents and brokers as Internet professionals. Because of its innovative design, students
are able to complete the course at their own pace, when and where they want, via any Internet
connection. The course is designed to help REALTORS stay at the leading edge of technology
and identify, evaluate and implement new Internet business models.

Once completed, the e-PRO certified real estate professional joins the ranks of a special
community of highly skilled and continuously trained professionals who provide high quality and
innovative online-based real estate services.  Consumers can identify the e-PRO through the
exclusive e-PRO Internet Professional logo.

Both the content and the delivery platform were created by San Diego-based technology company
InternetCrusade®. The course instructs participants in the professional use of e-mail, the
development of an interactive Web site, and the use of online research tools. Graduates use the
skills they've acquired to provide clients information on properties for sale, local communities, and
the local real estate market.
