While the MS Real Estate degree requires 30-45 hours, the certificate program usually include only the basic courses and require 12 -15 hours.The certificate can be earned by current students studying for a degree in a field other than real estate (such as urban planning, architecture, finance, etc.), or by individuals on a stand alone basis.A few of these certificates can be earned partially or wholly on line.Another program is the CCIM program, covering 5 courses and leading to certification by this commercial real estate affiliate of the NAR.The certificate programs are a solid credential, but does not replace an actual masters degree from the same or similar educational institution.
