Upcoming Events
Beginning January 1, 2009, educational requirements to receive a license will be raised. In addition to the 60-hour pre-license course, students will be required to take the 36 hours of education that were originally required in the first 3 years. Currently the law requires that the three 12 hour courses (Listing Practices, Buying Practices and Developing Professional Conduct & Ethical Practices) must be taken before a student can take the license exam. The Commission is in the process of changing that requirement to say that those courses must be taken before a student can apply for a license. Contact Bonnie at 338-6460 if you have questions.
