Being an auctioneer is an exciting and rewarding career – there is no doubt about it! No sales technique compares to a well-run auction marked by the rhythm of a great auction "chant." To become a licensed auctioneer in the State of Ohio, a candidate must complete 80 hours of approved instruction, participate in a one-year apprenticeship under a licensed auctioneer, bid call 12 auctions, and pass state licensure examinations.
Warren County Career Center’s auctioneer program is approved by the Ohio Department of Agriculture. Our curriculum is also recognized or approved by West Virginia, Virginia, Florida, and Utah.
During the program, the student will:
* Gain knowledge of the craft.
* Learn the legalities.
* Improve marketing and sales skills.
* Learn the technique of bid calling or “chanting”.
* Develop computer techniques for marketing and business procedures.
New classes beginning in September, see schedule below.
