LATEST UPDATE:  I attended the Colorado Springs City Council Work Session on 9/24/18. 

We definitely had multiple midnight working sessions.

@Cody Jensen I just attended a session with Michelle Brady of Equity Trust at my local REIA meetup, and her company seemed reputable and a go-to resource for those interested in using self-directed IRAs to fund their real estate investing.

If you don't want to buy anything, attend sessions you are interested in plus lunch presentations and take lots of notes.Now, if you decide on getting any of the guru courses, many of them will throw extra bonuses and stuff at the event.

there are brokerages that are your basic incubators for new agents.. full of training.. that's what you need as others have stated if your current broker has no formal scheduled training videos and training sessions you need to switch.you cant learn real estate brokerage and sales from a cracker jack box.. nor from the internet.. you need real training.. 

They usually have a 'who's got what session'. 

@Wiley StrahanI've been attending equity marketing sessions.

I'm not specifically familiar with any Houston requirements for a "Contractor's License" but there is not a State of Texas requirement for a "Contractor's License". 10 - 15 Years ago, the Legislature passed a requirement for all Builders to "Register" with a State Agency (I forget which one) but the requirement was dropped in the next legislative session.  

You will find what you're looking for at the marketing session I mentioned in other thread.

This is brainstorm session #1
