Auctioneer Pre-Licensing:  Most states with auctioneer licensing require a minimum of 80 hours of in-classroom education. Of that 80 hours, over one-half is dictated as mandatory education hours.  The remaining hours are of the school’s choosing. The Ohio Auction School provides 85 hours of total classroom education with an emphasis on all aspects of the auctioneering profession. Among the unique aspects of our course is a dinner for family and friends and live auction, with proceeds benefiting Faith Mission. Classes are ten days beginning Friday, ending 10 days later on Sunday.
