Section 404.1(a) of the Real Estate Licensing and Registration Act requires real estate brokers and salespersons to complete 14 hours of Commission-approved continuing education during each two- year license period. 

Additionally, a licensed broker or salesperson who wishes to activate a license that has been placed on inactive status shall be required to document 14 hours of continuing education.  (If you are activating a license which has been in escrow, you must take two additional seven-hour elective courses or one 15-hour broker course to renew your license for the next two-year license period.)  If your license has been in escrow for a period of five years or longer, you must retake the salesperson/broker examination before your license can be reactivated.
