I think the local Association offers some classes.  Some of the franchise companies have their own classes.  Most of the independents don't.

well Paul I'm the broker and a licensed instructor and so yes, I do offer my agents classes at least 4 times a year.  They need 3 classes annually.  However I can't teach myself, so I have to take classes and I do someone on line and others I seek out classes.  I also have to have more hours than my agents due to my instructors license as well.
