<human>:  What do I need to do to become a certified real estate agent?
<bot>: In order to become a certified real estate agent, you will need to complete various educational and licensing requirements that vary depending on your state or country. Generally, you will need to complete a pre-licensing course or courses, pass an examination (often consisting of both a written and practical section), and apply for a license. You may also need to find a sponsoring broker or complete additional hours of post-licensing education. Once you have completed all of the required steps, you will then be eligible to become a certified real estate agent.
