Stock and station agent course

Course for the stock and station agent in NSW

If you love country life and want to sell real estate, livestock and chattels on behalf of farmers and graziers, then the stock and station agent course is for you.

You can obtain this qualification in one of the following two ways:

Enrol in the Dual Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice (CPP41419) (Stock and Station).
If you already have a Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice (CPP41419), or equivalent, enrol to complete the five units in the stock and station elective unit cluster.

Both these pathways qualify you to apply for a Stock and Station Agent’s Licence from NSW Fair Trading.
With a stock and station agent course you can appraise, auction and sell:

parcels of rural land in excess of 20 hectares
livestock such as cows, sheep, pigs, horses and goats (but not poultry)
chattels, which are usually defined as personal property that can be moved.

What will this qualification enable me to do?

Once you’ve completed the five units in the stock and station elective unit cluster of the Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice, you’re eligible to apply for your Stock and Station Agent’s Licence from NSW Fair Trading.

After you’re registered as a Stock and Station Agent you can appraise, auction and sell rural parcels of land up to, and in excess of, 20 hectares, as well as livestock and chattels. This qualification enables you to expand your business in the agricultural business.

Why should I complete the Stock and Station Agent’s course?

To qualify for this licence from NSW Fair Trading, you must hold both a Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice plus the five units in the stock and station elective unit cluster.

You can obtain this qualification by completing the Dual Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice that includes the five stock and station elective units, or, if you hold a current real estate licence you can complete the five stock and station elective units on their own.

Well what can I say about Molly……
In my eyes she is a human angel who’s unwavering and endless support to me going above and beyond during the times I was challenged in completing this course, was outstanding.
Molly has a very unique … More energy about her who has a wonderful understanding of how to be compassionate, caring, nurturing and who , well I am not sure of her spiritual faith but she came across to me as a beautiful soul with a christian heart and a touching strength that showed I mattered to her.
Molly also has the ability to exercise empathy where she has the capacity to place herself in another persons emotional position which by the way requires no textbook!.
Molly knows if you can listen, be patient, exercise kindness and understanding you open the door to a world where feelings of another can safely be shared and where one does not feel alone.
And for that I am so grateful to Molly for being there for me every step of the way.
Thank you Molly you have a beautiful and unique gift to offer the universe where you make people feel worthwhile, you are truly blessed and I have no doubt your presence in this world is to do great things where you make a difference in people’s lives. Enjoy the gift you are and may it bring you abundance in return on many levels.

Frequently asked questions

What does a stock and station agent do?

Stock and station agents provide timely and relevant advice to clients concerning the sale and purchase of rural property, livestock, crops and agricultural products and services. In some instances, the agent might even act on their behalf. The day-to-day life of a stock and station agent includes:

In-depth consultation with vendors to set reserve prices on products.
Asking for and potentially setting opening bids for auctions.
Accepting suitable bids from potential buyers and closing sales to the highest bidders on behalf of clients.
Assist in selling agricultural supplies, including grains, sprays, seed, feed, dips, drenches and veterinary products.
Appraisals and listing of property for upcoming auctions.
Act in line with state and federal regulatory requirements.
Organising and distributing advertising, catalogues, and other publicity for auctions.
Purchase and sell necessary livestock and rural property on behalf of their clients.

Is the stock and station agent course all I need to complete?

No, completing the course will not automatically make you a stock and station agent. After completing the required units with Entry Education, you will then need to apply for a stock and station agent licence with Service NSW. There you will be able to use your qualifications achieved through Entry Education and other important business information to secure your licence and get trading!

Why do I need to complete the livestock training course?

To qualify for this licence from NSW Fair Trading, you must hold both a Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice plus the five units in the stock and station elective unit cluster offered by Entry Education.

You can obtain this qualification by completing the Dual Certificate IV in Real Estate Practice that includes the five stock and station elective units, or, if you hold a current real estate licence, you can complete the five stock and station elective units on their own.

What support does Entry Education provide?

As a student, you have ongoing unlimited support throughout your livestock training course. A direct message system in the Entry Education portal means you can seek support whenever you need it. This includes weekends and outside 9–5 office hours.

If your career is going places, this is your golden opportunity to get the essential training you need, and Entry Education will be with you every step of the way.

Who issues my certificate or statement of attainment?
