Our History

Great Lakes Realty Systems, Inc. was established in 1994 by Jack Miedema, and is based in the metropolitan Grand Rapids, Michigan area. In addition to facilitating various real estate-related seminars and courses, we’ve also developed course materials licensed by other educators who have trained real estate agents from Alaska to Florida.

  

Michigan Real Estate Continuing Education

Since 1998 we’ve been the premier developer of annual Michigan-specific real estate continuing education courses. Each year, over 45,000 Michigan licensees attend a continuing education class where our annual six-hour course is presented.

  

In 2003 we were the first Michigan real estate continuing education sponsor to both develop our own distance learning management system (DLMS) software platform and offer Michigan-specific online continuing education courses. If you want to purchase an online continuing education course or want to continue with a course you’ve already purchased, select the Online Courses navigation button to the upper left of the screen.

  

Our Philosophy

Whether career education is voluntary or mandatory, we believe it should be meaningful, interactive and fun. This site is simply an extension of our philosophy. When you have a question about the real estate occupation in Michigan, we hope you'll find many of your answers here.
