Continuing Education Requirements Real Estate Continuing EducationWith the start of the 2009-2010 biennium, all licensees must complete six Department of Regulation and Licensing (DRL)-approved courses for a total of 18 hours before December 14, 2010. There are four mandatory courses and a list of DRL-approved electives. Licensees must complete the four mandatory courses and two electives from the DRL-approved electives list. If your real estate license is currently inactive and has been inactive for less than five years, to renew your real estate license you need to complete the 2007-2008 continuing education and pay the license fee and late fee. Further questions can be directed to the Department of Regulation and Licensing at drl.wi.gov. Continuing education is offered at several schools throughout In lieu of continuing education, licensees may take a test-out exam. For more information, contact Promissor/Wisconsin Real Estate (888) 204-6284 or find more information online. (You will need to choose "Wisconsin" from the drop down menu.) The test-out option is only available in the first year of the biennium. Study materials may be purchased from WI DRL. To order study materials, simply fax or mail the WI DRL order form.

Ethics and Orientation Several years ago, in an effort to raise professionalism in the real estate industry and service to the consumer, the National Association of REALTORS® (NAR) instituted a quadrennial ethics training requirement. This means that all NAR members are required to complete an approved Code of Ethics Training every four years. The current quadrennial dates are from January 1, 2009—December 31, 2012. This means that all WWRA members must attend or provide proof of completing the approved course to WWRA by December 31, 2012. NAR has established a timeline for consequences for those who do not complete the training by the specified timeframe, including suspension of national, state and local membership. Please feel free to call WWRA at (651) 776-6000 with any questions or dates of the upcoming trainings. You can also take the course online at www.realtor.org.
