Kaplan Real Estate Education received special recognition for its online programs to help aspiring professionals earn their real estate licenses. Alongside students’ online licensing courses, they have access to the Live Online Learning Hub, where expert instructors host sessions nearly every day to explain complex topics, reinforce key concepts, and answer questions in real time. Student feedback has shown that the Learning Hub helps improve understanding and readiness before exam day. Kaplan Real Estate Education also offers a Buyer Agency Professional (BAP) designation to help buyer agents succeed as they face a drastically different way to earn their commission. And earlier this year, Kaplan Real Estate Education released its inaugural Real Estate Survey of Trends, which explores the diverse experiences and viewpoints of professionals in the real estate industry, amid a changing industry landscape shaped by fluctuating market dynamics, shifting client expectations, and the advent of artificial intelligence.

Gregory Marino, CEO, Kaplan North America, said:

“We’re honored to be recognized among America’s Top Online Learning Providers for 2026. This reflects Kaplan’s enduring commitment to innovation and student success. Our online programs, built by leading technologists and educators, offer the flexibility learners need to reach their academic and career goals. As online learning demand grows, we’ll continue expanding and elevating our offerings so students can choose the paths that work best for them.”
