The RECA Fundamentals of Real Estate exam is the foundational prelicensing exam required for candidates pursuing an Alberta real estate licence. It assesses whether candidates can apply essential knowledge across the 14 competency domains in RECA’s current exam blueprint.
Passing the Fundamentals exam is one required step. Candidates must also complete the education and exam requirements for their chosen real estate sector before applying for a licence. The exam covers professional responsibilities, legislation, public protection, client advice, disclosure, document management, negotiation, transactions and other foundational competencies.
The Fundamentals of Real Estate exam is divided across 14 competency domains, but they are not weighted equally. Professional Responsibilities represents 20% of the exam, while Advise Clients, Document Management and Negotiation each represent 10%. Together, these four domains account for half of the exam.
| Competency domain | Exam weighting |
|---|---|
| Professional Responsibilities | 20% |
| Laws and Regulations | 5% |
| Disclosure Obligations | 5% |
| Public Protection | 5% |
| Health and Safety | 8% |
| Work Management | 5% |
| Communication | 5% |
| Advise Clients | 10% |
| Information Technology | 5% |
| Working Relationships | 5% |
| Research | 5% |
| Document Management | 10% |
| Negotiation | 10% |
| Transactions | 2% |
