Though the internet was still nascent in the mid-90s, the American School of Real Estate Express was already pioneering its comprehensive online curriculum to help clients obtain their licenses on their own schedules. The school continues to expand its menu of more than 150 courses under the guidance of Dean of Instruction and Curriculum, Stephen Mettling. The author of more than 75 real-estate books, texts, and training programs, Mettling has carefully added to the site's literature and written some of it himself, helping new agents learn to sell houses to families and doghouses to economical college students.
