Requirement Details


Minnesota State Requirement Details for Real Estate Continuing Education

The CE Shop is an approved real estate education provider in Minnesota: Code/Approval Number: 21006660

Every two (2) years, 30 clock hours of Real Estate Continuing Education is required. 

·         Real Estate Continuing education hours must be completed every other year by June 30th (year due depends on individual licensee), with one (1) hour during each license period in law or regulation on agency representation and disclosure, and one (1) hour in state and federal fair housing laws, regulations, and rules, other anti-discrimination laws, or courses designed to help licensees meet the housing needs of immigrant and other underserved populations.  

 

·         Licensees are required to have at least 15 hours completed within the first year (12 months) of the license cycle.

  • Minnesota approval numbers are on the certificates of completion that are received after the course has been completed. All courses in the catalog are approved.
  • Per MN rules, licensees are not allowed to view the details of their final exam results.
  • All students must spend a minimum amount of seat time engaged in the course content.  The course system will track your participation time as well as count down the minimum time required.  Distance learning seat time is calculated in the same way as it is for classroom courses (50 minutes per clock hour).  Your course will not be counted as completed until the minimum time requirement has been met.

  • IMPORTANT: Licensees are only allowed to complete a cumulative 8 total hour limit in a 24 hour day to continuing education in classroom, distance or internet instruction per MN Department of Commerce Rule 2809. It is up to the licensee to know this and ensure they are not completing more than 8 total hours in a 24 hour day. 

Immediately upon real estate course completion, The CE Shop will provide students with an electronic copy of the course Certificate of Completion. Certificates will remain in your account for a minimum of five (5) years, should you need additional copies at a later time.  Licensees are encouraged to retain copies of their Certificates of Completion in the event that they are audited by the state.  Please refer to your renewal application to determine if you need to submit your Certificate(s) of Completion with your renewal.

Real estate course completions are recorded with the Minnesota Department of Commerce each business day.  It may take 2-4 business days from the time we report your hours before the Commission updates your license and/or updates their website with the hours.

Please enter your individual Minnesota license number (NOT MLS number) correctly and fully when prompted in the registration process to ensure the reporting of your hours takes place. Minnesota license numbers should be eight (8) digits.  For reporting purposes, please leave out any letters, dashes, or periods from the license number.
