Continuing Education Requirements
Every Real Estate agent is required to complete 24-hours of ADRE-approved Continuing Education (CE) courses every two (2) years to renew their real estate license. Education is typically delivered in two ways: learner-directed (anytime, anywhere, self-study format) and teacher-directed (instructor/school determines the place and direction). You may complete the required hours either way, or a combination of both!
