Who determines Real Estate Continuing Education Requirements?


	Every state in the United States, except for New Jersey, requires real estate licensees to earn real estate continuing education in order to maintain their real estate licenses. Most real estate professionals know that they need real estate continuing education credit, but they are not always sure how many real estate renewal classes are needed and which real estate schools can meet the real estate continuing education real estate hour requirements. Who decides the real estate continuing education requirements? Each state determines the licensing requirements and real estate continuing education requirements. Every state has a specific department to enforce the laws of real estate pre-licensing, real estate post-licensing, and real estate continuing education. In most states these departments are either called the real estate commission or department of real estate. How are real estate continuing education classes approved? Every state determines which real estates courses may be approved and it varies from state to state. For example, some states have specific real estate continuing education class requirements for 3 hours of agency law or 3 hours of federal fair housing, whereas other states are more lenient. In order for a real estate class to be approved for continuing education real estate hours, the real estate school must submit an application to the real estate commission or department of real estate for their review of the course material. In some states classes like selling skills or marketing, may be approved for general real estate hours. The best advice is to check with your state’s real estate commission or department of real estate prior to registering for any real estate renewal class to meet the real estate continuing education requirements. Since many students today are taking their real estate hours online, this pertains to online schools as well.
