If you plan on working for a bank, you usually don't need one, not even in CA. If you are going to broker, then yep, you need one.
Check out your local real estate offices. Century 21 usually has a "condensed" course, about 6 weeks, to prepare you for the state exam. Not sure if they have one up where you are, but
Anthony's Real Estate School is also very good.
Tough to get started, but once you are in and have some good contacts, it's good $$$.
Best of luck!
