Classroom Success Starts With an Experienced Instructor

Sterling Professional Education’s classes are taught by Dan Norby. Dan has a long history in architecture and construction, and has been teaching pre-licensing and exam preparation classes to contractors since 2004. Dan has a passion for making his customers happy and serving others, and started Sterling Professional Education to follow this drive. In addition, Dan has taught and written coursework for licensing and continuing education classes for contractors, real estate agents, and appraisers. He continues to hold a Minnesota Real Estate License.

Dan recognizes the value that in-person classes offer, and believes that his students thrive with face-to-face instruction in an environment where they feel welcome to ask questions as they study to start and grow their contracting business. He started Sterling Professional Education shortly after many courses shifted online in 2020, and today teaches a variety of courses for contractors throughout Minnesota.
