Beginning February 1, 2008 all new licensees will be required to complete 30 hours of post-licensing education within 1 year of being licensed which must be completed in a classroom setting. The CE Shop does not offer the post-licensing courses at this time.
Immediately upon real estate course completion, The CE Shop will provide students with an electronic copy of the course Certificate of Completion. Certificates will remain in your account for a minimum of five (5) years, should you need additional copies at a later time. Licensees are encouraged to retain copies of their Certificates of Completion in the event that they are audited by the state. Please refer to your renewal application to determine if you need to submit your Certificate(s) of Completion with your renewal.
