The Real Estate Ethics Course is Required for 2020 Renewal The Missouri Real Estate Commission voted last year to add real estate ethics as a core topic for continuing education (CE). Additionally, the Commission approved real estate ethics as a continuing education core course requirement for the next renewal of both broker and salesperson type licenses. The Commission reviews complaints filed against real estate licensees, investigation reports, and findings of audits of real estate entities. In many of the cases reviewed, the Commission determined various violations cited were ethics related matters. Therefore, the Commission decided to require a real estate ethics core course before a license can be renewed in 2020 for the 2020-2022 license period. If you have already taken an MREC approved elective ethics course since renewing your license in 2018, upon request from the school by January 1, 2019, the course will be automatically converted to a core course. To renew your license in 2020, you will need to have a 3-hour core real estate ethics course plus 9 hours of other continuing education. The other nine hours can be either elective courses, core courses, or any combination of elective and core courses. CE does not apply to inactive licenses. If you have questions about CE, call MREC at (573) 751-2628, ext. 6

IMPORTANT NOTE: If you take the COE training at any other school besides KCRAR/CE Cheap or the NAR online course, you must submit confirmation of completion to KCRAR. To do this you may e-mail it to Education@KCRAR.com or mail a copy of your certificate of completion to KCRAR - Attention: Alison Trevor, 11150 Overbrook Rd., Leawood, KS 66211.
