Broker Post-Licensing

Go to Shopping Cart See Class Schedule

Once licensed, a Provisional Broker must complete a Post-Licensing Education Program in order to terminate the "Provisional" status of their license HPW Real Estate School and to avoid license inactivation and possible eventual cancellation. You will need to take at least one 30-hour Broker Post-Licensing course by the anniversary date of your license each year for the first three years of licensure. You may take all 90 hours during your first year of licensure, you can take them in any order, but you must take all three courses without duplicating and you cannot take multiple courses at the same time.

Per Commission Rule 58A.1904, a provisional broker is subject to withdrawal or denial of Postlicensing education credit by the Real Estate Commission if s/he enrolls concurrently in Postlicensing courses (at the same or different schools) that result in the provisional broker being in class for more than 30 classroom hours in any given seven-day period.

After completing each of the three 30-hour Broker Post-Licensing courses, your "provisional" status is removed and you are a "Broker".
