The New Jersey Real Estate Commission (NJREC) has specific Continuing Education (CE) requirements for all licensees during the licensing period from July 1, 2023, to June 30, 2025. Here's everything you need to know:
Total CE Hours Required
All licensees MUST complete a total of 12 credit hours of Continuing Education (CE) within this period. However, if you became a salesperson licensee after July 1, 2024, you are exempt from CE requirements for this cycle. You will start your CE in the next cycle.
Breakdown of CE Requirements
-
Fair Housing and New Jersey Law Against Discrimination: 1 Hour
-
Ethics: 2 Hours
-
Core Topics: 3 Hours
-
Mix or Electives: 6 Hours
Key Points to Remember
- Ethics Credits: These can replace Core and Elective credits. However, Core and Elective credits cannot replace Ethics credits.
- Category Flexibility: Credits from Ethics, Fair Housing, and Core categories can all be used in place of Electives.
- Salesperson Referral Changes: If you change your license type, you must complete your CE entirely in Core or Ethics topics.
Tracking Your CE Progress
To ensure you're on track with your CE requirements, you can use the PSI Online CE Tracking System. This system helps you monitor the credits you've earned and what you still need to complete.
By following these guidelines, you'll stay compliant with NJREC requirements and maintain your license in good standing.
Final Tips
- Plan Ahead: Start early to avoid the rush near the deadline.
- Use Resources: Take advantage of online courses and resources that fit your schedule.
- Stay Updated: Check NJREC updates regularly for any changes or additional information.
By staying informed and proactive, you'll easily meet your CE requirements and continue to excel in your real estate career.
