During that initial licensure period, the newly licensed broker will not have any obligation to complete any continuing education. After that initial license period, the active licensee will then be on a three-year license cycle and be obligated to complete 24 hours of continuing education within that licensing cycle. |
Three year cycle | For each three-year license cycle, all active real estate brokers must complete 24 hours of continuing education. Three-Year License Cycle Continuing Education Requirements Twelve (12) of the 24 hours must be comprised of three (3) different versions of the four hour (4) Annual Commission Update Course. The remaining twelve (12) hours can be any combination of elective credit hours approved by the Commission. |
|
Transition License Cycle Continuing Education Requirements | To accommodate licensees during the transition period, licensees may complete two (2) different versions of the Annual Commission Update Course to satisfy the
eight (8) hours of mandated education pursuant to section 12-10-213(1)(b), C.R.S. Licensees who choose this option must also complete an additional sixteen (16) hours of elective credit hours to meet the 24-hour total continuing education requirement during the transition period. |

You are strongly encouraged to attend the course early in the calendar year. If you take four (4) versions of the update course during the license cycle, the fourth class may be counted toward the elective credit requirement. It may not be used for credit in the next/upcoming license cycle. Alternative to Annual Commission Update Course Annual Commission Update courses are mandatory. Once the course year has passed, that version cannot be made up. In this case, you will need to investigate alternative ways to meet the continuing education requirements.
