Contact your state governing agency over real estate licensing. They can give you a list of schools that meet their requirements for licensure. In the meantime, there are thousands of books at libraries and available on line that can give you information.

Contact the state real estate licensing board for state requirements, take the required courses and sit for the exam. Many will require a broker to agree to hire and train you as well before the license is issued.
Since you are in Australia your rules may differ from the US where it is regulated primarily state by state with a few Federal regulations tossed in regarding discrimination.

After you get licensed and hook up with a broker you will want to get a website.
The NAR (National Association of Realtors) put out a study in 2005 saying that the use of the Internet to search for a home has risen from 2% in 1995 to 77% in 2005 and agents with websites has increased 129% over the past 5 years. It also said that In terms of lead generation, only referrals and repeat clients rank above the Internet as the most effective methods of gaining new business.
Unfortunately the real estate industry is a little bit behind in marketing themselves online, so having a website that displays the MLS data with an integrated IDX feed is probably your best bet to beat the competition. Especially since most of the real estate being sold is being done so by the newly established realtors who have mastered online marketing.
Some good website design companies are http://www.bayshoresolutions.com or http://13avenue.com
But the real kicker is being able to display MLS listings on your site and integrate search tools using an IDX feed. IDX Broker is definitely a superior product: http://www.idxbroker.com
Good luck!
