Education Upgrades: OnDemand Library Subscription

Every RHAWA member has free access to a comprehensive lineup of ONDEMAND courses that are specifically curated based on membership type. These courses are focused on the laws and best practices for operating rental properties. But what happens to all of the other courses that we offer live on Zoom each week? After a 30-day period where they are exclusively available to those who registered for the live session, the recordings are transferred to our ONDEMAND Library. All members have the option to upgrade with a subscription to access the full library.

What’s Included With the Subscription?

Members can subscribe to this library in two ways. On a monthly basis for $25/ month or on an annual basis for $10/month (billed annually). This exceptional deal providing access to over one hundred unique courses is only available to RHAWA members. Each course includes a video recording of the lecture, a downloadable PDF of the slide presentation, and any other readable materials. Most of these courses also come with a downloadable certificate of completion. Note, that these are not for real estate clock hours – those certificates are available for a limited number of licensed courses that are not included in the ONDEMAND Library. See other Education Upgrades at the end of this article.

Other Education Upgrades

In addition to the ONDEMAND Library, we offer a few other upgrades beyond the included member education.

Live Zoom Classes 

Members can attend any of our live Zoom classes presented weekly for $30. Simply login and register from the calendar at RHAwa.org/events. Selected classes are available to non-members at higher prices.

Real Estate Clock-Hour Certificate Courses 

If you are a Washington State licensed Real Estate broker, you will need to complete 30 hours of continuing education every two years. It’s often difficult to find courses that are dedicated to rental housing matters, but RHAWA now has enough licensed clock-hour ONDEMAND courses to fulfill most of the requirements with the exception of a 3-hour real estate update course that we do not offer. These are available for members at $10/hour and for non-members at $20/hour.

Annual Class Pass

If you enjoy attending live Zoom Classes, subscribe to the Annual Class Pass. For just $250/year, members can register for all weekly Zoom classes for free. This generally does not include live in-person events, but sometimes discounts for class pass holders are offered.
