License Renewal Changes

Changes to License Renewal Requirements According to the DRE

Licensees with a renewal date of January 1, 2023, or later are required to take an Implicit Bias course and an Interactive Fair Housing course as part of their 45 hours of CE. Total required 45 hours of CE remains the same. The Packages on this page include the classes mentioned above as of 10/3/22.

Renewal Guidelines – The DRE has communicated the guidelines below to all California CE course providers:

Licensees with a renewal date of 1/1/23 or later
Must submit CE coursework that includes the interactive Fair Housing and Implicit Bias coursework. If the licensee has completed their 45 hours already with the former package and old coursework, they will be required to take these two courses also.

Licensees with a renewal date prior to 1/1/23
May submit the new coursework in Implicit Bias and the Interactive Fair Housing for credit and it will be accepted even though these courses are not required prior to 1/1/23
OR
May submit the previous coursework PRIOR to 1/1/23 even though it does not include the two new courses.

Licensees with a renewal date prior to 1/1/23 that submit renewal information after 1/1/23 – LATE RENEWALS
These agents will be required to submit the new coursework in Implicit Bias and the Interactive Fair Housing Course.
