Real Estate Board: Continuing Education

For Brokers and Experienced Salespersons

Section 54.1-2105.03 of the Code of Virginia requires all brokers and salespersons (who have renewed their license at least once before) to complete Board-approved Continuing Education to renew or activate their licenses.

Effective July 1, 2024, HB 383 and SB 330 will raise the continuing education requirement for real estate brokers and salespersons from eight to 11 hours for relicensure. The required courses will include 2 hours in legal updates and emerging trends, 2 hours in real estate agency, and 2 hours in real estate contracts. License holders whose licenses expire on or after June 30, 2026, will need to fulfill the continuing education requirements outlined in HB 383 and SB 330, as described in the previous sentence.
