New online program equips aspiring professionals to enter the manufactured housing industry with confidence and full HCD compliance

LONG BEACH, CA, UNITED STATES, May 21, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- The MH Trainer, a California HCD-approved education provider for the manufactured housing industry, today announced the launch of its Preliminary Licensing Course for prospective California manufactured home dealers and salespersons. The self-paced online program is now open for enrollment and is designed to help students meet California Department of Housing and Community Development (HCD) pre-licensing education requirements quickly, affordably, and on their own schedule.

Becoming a licensed manufactured home dealer or salesperson in California requires more than ambition — it requires meeting strict HCD pre-licensing education requirements before a license can be issued. The MH Trainer’s new course covers everything new licensees need to know, including industry regulations, sales practices, contract fundamentals, ethics, and compliance standards. Upon successful completion and review, students receive a certificate of completion that satisfies the preliminary education requirement.

“Most people who want to break into manufactured housing don’t fail because they lack drive — they fail because the licensing path feels confusing and inaccessible,” said Yvette Hitchens, Founder of The MH Trainer. “We built this course to remove that barrier. It’s everything a new dealer or salesperson needs to start their career on solid ground — available anytime, from anywhere.”

Hitchens added, “We’re not here to be another HCD course provider. We’re here to be the reason California’s next generation of MH professionals actually succeeds.”

Course Highlights:
100% online, self-paced — fits around any schedule
Mobile-friendly access for learning on the go
Industry-aligned curriculum built by experienced professionals
Ongoing student support throughout the program

The MH Trainer was built specifically for the modern manufactured housing professional — and the employers who support them — and is led by an ARELLO Certified Distance Education Instructor (CDEI™) with nearly 30 years of hands-on manufactured housing experience in California.

What Sets The MH Trainer Apart:

The MH Trainer is a proud member of MHI, CMHI, the California Association of Realtors (CAR), the National Association of Realtors (NAR), and the Women’s Council of Realtors.

The course is ideal for individuals entering the manufactured housing industry for the first time, as well as California real estate professionals looking to expand their services into MH sales. With manufactured housing playing a growing role in solving California’s affordable housing shortage, demand for licensed dealers and salespersons continues to climb — making this an ideal moment for new professionals to enter the field.
