RISMEDIA, March 19, 2007-Avalar welcomes RealtyU® as their new partner in career development. This new partnership has created the much anticipated Avalar Career Center, an online training resource produced by the leader in online Real Estate education, RealtyU. The Avalar Career Center is designed exclusively for Avalar agents and brokers to help enhance their business and to provide valuable continuing education, news from Avalar, as well as educational and business tools, including writing successful business plans for agents and brokers.

In effect, the Avalar Career Center is a customized educational cornerstone providing brokerages with a single portal for their agents' educational needs, including:

- Online education
- Licensing
- Continuing Education
- Mentoring and Coaching
- Designations and Certifications
- Business Planning

Along with a host of other educational tools including:

- An online glossary of real estate terms
- Monthly educational newsletter
- Blogging
- Media feed

The heart of the Avalar Career Center and RealtyU® platform comes from RealtyU's iSucceed technology and supplies the online mentoring and coaching tool. The program is based on the largely popular iSucceed Online Service and allows users to view various Top Producing agents' methods of conducting and building their business. The modules also allow Avalar users to view skills-based-classes, listen to tele-seminars and go through success modules. In order to provide each agent with individual training tailored to their needs, there are several hundred modules for beginning, intermediate and advanced agents.

The relationship between Avalar and RealtyU® has been underway since September 2006, when the concept of the educational platform was first introduced at Avalar's Annual Convention.

Chuck Scoble, Avalar CEO states, "We're excited to be able to bring to our agents such a rich scope of ongoing training and mentoring tools with which to build their careers. The RealtyU Real Estate Career Development platform is simply the most robust solution in the marketplace, and will enable us to support our agents' personal and professional growth with a strong collection of resources."

In its first months of use, the Avalar Career Center has been widely embraced by Avalar Brokers, owners and agents. While there is a cost involved for the service, many see it as an investment to their career and couldn't be happier with such a convenient opportunity to improve their business. Many owners and brokers in the Avalar Network are seeing the Avalar Career Center as not only an educational tool but as a recruiting and retention tool as well.

Avalar currently has 130 offices in 17 states with over 4,600 agents; the Avalar Career Center is crucial for this ever expanding company.
