Continuing Education Audits Ongoing
11/16/2011
From time to time, the Board of Registration for Real Estate Brokers and Salespersons conducts random audits of licensed real estate agents to ensure compliance with the continuing education requirements. The current requirement is twelve hours of continuing education every two years if you intend to renew your license as active. The continuing education requirement should be taken very seriously and you should be sure to keep records and certificates of classes taken. If you have been contacted recently by the Board, it is not because you have been specifically targeted, rather, you have been randomly selected by the Board to show evidence that you have in-fact completed the requirement. If you cannot find your records or course certificates, contact the real estate school that offered the class and ask for a copy. Schools are required to maintain records on licensees who have take courses through their school. The Board may impose disciplinary action against any licensee who fails to complete the twelve hour course requirement or who misrepresents information regarding the completion of those courses.
