According to the guidelines set forth by the Real Estate Commission, you must arrive ON TIME and remain the entire class time to receive Continuing Education Credit or Clock Hours – NO EXCEPTIONS!
ON TIME means you must be signed in by the time class starts and sign out at the end of the class.  There is NO GRACE PERIOD!  The Real Estate Commission could rescind our authorization to provide Continuing Education Classes if this is not strictly enforced.  If you arrive late or do not remain the entire class, you may be able to attend the class, but you will not be eligible for any “refund, clock hours, or otherwise credit whatsoever.”

If the class must be canceled for any reason you will be notified by phone and email that you provided us.  All classes are open to members and non-members.

You must renew to remain inactive!
