All homebuyers must attend an 8-hour homebuyer education course through an approved housing counseling agency located within Arizona and obtain a certificate of completion. The homebuyer education course may be in-person or on-line. Upon completion of an online class, homebuyers must provide their lender with a co-branded certificate (see tip below for multiple borrowers) with the local agency’s name and/or logo. The following agencies have provided us with links to their approved online course offerings.
Approved Online Courses

- Newtown CDC
- ACCE’s Make Your Move with Take Charge America
- Trellis
Tip for Multiple Borrowers
If multiple borrowers are participating in the same online education course, both borrower names should appear on the completion certificate. To prompt this formatting, please enter the names as shown below in the name fields when enrolling.
For example:
- First Name: Owen & Olivia
- Last Name: Anderson
