Amended by A.B. 345
Effective date: January 1, 2016
California Bureau of Real Estate (CalBRE)-licensed brokers now need to complete a course in office management and supervision as part of their 45-hour continuing education requirements.
Brokers renewing their license for the first time need to take a three-hour course on office management and supervision. For subsequent license renewals, brokers may take either:
- the full three-hour office management and supervision course; or
- an eight-hour survey course which includes office management supervision.
Editor’s note — A broker whose CalBRE license expires after January 1, 2016 will be required to take the three-hour office management and supervision course to renew their license. first tuesday is in the process of having our three-hour course approved with CalBRE. If you already took your continuing education with first tuesday for your 2016 renewal, the three-hour course is free. We’ll notify affected students once the course is approved and ready!
I recently took Broker Management 45 hour course as it is required by Nevada Broker License, will it qualify for CalBRE?
The text book was not Nevada specific. Thank you.
Christine,
CalBRE requires 45-hour courses to include 30 hours of Consumer Protection or Consumer Service material, as well as 15 hours of Agency, Fair Housing, Trust Funds, Ethics and Risk Management. We do not know if the course you took included these requirements. Please contact CalBRE for more information and to see if your course qualifies.
