Virginia CE Reporting Nobody on Your Team Has to Touch

Before

The Reporting Ritual

  • Export the class roster and rebuild it in a spreadsheet
  • Put back the leading zeros the spreadsheet dropped
  • Track down the agent who left the license number blank
  • Open the SFTP client, upload, and hope it took
After

Nothing to Do

  • License numbers came in on the registration form, checked as agents typed them
  • The file was built in DPOR's format, zeros and all
  • It went to DPOR's server on schedule
  • DPOR's confirmation is already in your inbox
The rest of the school

Everything Around the Report, on One Platform

Registration and Check-In

Online sign-up, member pricing from your association's AMS, and check-in at the door.

Live, Online or On Demand

Zoom and GoToMeeting attendance sync, or video courses agents take on their own time.

Quizzes and Evaluations

Required before credit, so only agents who finished are reported.

Certificates Agents Keep

Issued on completion and kept in each agent's Learning History.

How it starts

Set Up Once, Then Never Upload Again

1
Start from DPOR's Format

Create a Spreadsheet Report, choose "Start from a board's format" and pick Virginia DPOR Real Estate.

2
Answer a Short Setup

Your school code once, and which registration question holds the license number. No question yet? The setup creates one that checks the number as agents type it.

3
Add Each Class Code

DPOR's class code goes on the credit once, and every agent who completes the class carries it.

4
Enter DPOR's SFTP Login

Stored once, never shown again. From then on every completion reaches DPOR without anyone opening a file.

Questions from Virginia Real Estate Schools

How long does setup take?

One short sitting. Pick Virginia DPOR Real Estate under "Start from a board's format", enter your school code and the SFTP login DPOR issued you, choose your license number question, and add the class code to each credit. We're glad to walk through it with you on a call.

What happens when an agent's license number is wrong?

The license number question checks the entry as the agent registers, so a typo is fixed on the spot by the person who knows the number. The report's preview shows the next file's rows before it goes, and Send History keeps every file DPOR received, with its rows, for a year.

Do we have to collect Social Security numbers?

No. LecturePanda reports your agents by license number and name, and your registration form never asks for an SSN.

Does it work for a brokerage's free in-house classes?

Yes. A brokerage training its own agents, a REALTOR association's member class and a school's paid course all report the same way, and Spreadsheet Reports are part of the LecturePanda subscription. Pricing is an annual subscription plus participants; see pricing.

Can we still see or change what goes to DPOR?

Yes. Add your own email as a second destination and you get a copy of every file DPOR gets. Download any past file from Send History, resend it, or change the schedule whenever you like. Send a test proves the connection before the first real send.

Is the SFTP connection secure?

Yes. LecturePanda pins DPOR's server key, connects from a fixed address and uploads each file under a temporary name until it's complete. Your SFTP password is stored separately and never shown again.
