Looking to get into Commercial Real Estate and Green Building
Hello everyone,

I've recently decided to pursue commercial real estate and have been prepping for the LEED AP exam as well. I want to get up to speed this month so then I can apply to an analyst position at a bigger firm. I have a few questions:
-In terms of a brokers license, is there a study course I should use?
-Is there any excel functions/courses I should learn? I heard being an analyst is working in excel 1000% of the time. 
-Are there any other courses I should pursue to learn more about CRE? 

Thanks for all the help!
