Description

State Requirements

Implicit bias—the unconscious attitudes and stereotypes that impact our actions and decisions—can be a controversial and confusing subject. However, as a 2019 Newsday Long Island real estate exposé revealed, implicit bias can have a significant impact on real estate professionals’ interactions with consumers. With this in mind, the California Department of Real Estate mandated this two-hour course to make licensees aware of what implicit bias is, explain how to recognize it in themselves, and understand the illegal and immoral impact it has on the public. It also examines explicit and systemic biases and their impact on Californians.

This course explores the roots of implicit bias in government-sanctioned practices such as redlining and blockbusting, then shows licensees how to recognize their own biases.

The course meets California’s mandatory requirement for two hours of Implicit Bias Training.

Course highlights include:

Implicit bias and its various forms
Explicit bias and systemic bias
Societal impacts of biases
Historical and social impacts of bias
Fair housing prohibited actions and enforcement
California’s Fair Employment and Housing Act
Role play: recognizing and combating implicit bias
