Active Status Vs Inactive Status
In addition to any certification requirements in order to
perform any brokerage service for others for a fee
(including referrals for which you are compensated), your
certification must be on active status, which means you must
obtain all required continued education each certification
period.
If you renew your
certification without satisfying the continuing education
requirement, your certification will automatically be placed
on inactive status until you satisty the CE requirement for
certification activation.
Courses must be Taken By
August 31st.
Continuing education must
be completed each annual certification period between July 1
and August 31st.
Don't Wait Untill Last Minute
Avoid the rush at the end of the certification period (July
1st to August 31st). You will have a better chance of
finding space available if you take your CE courses early.
You will avoid the possibility of an unexpected
conflict(illness,death in family,business emergency,etc)
preventing your from acquiring the required education by
August 31st.
Extension of time to
acquire CE while continuing on active status will be granted
only in those instances where an individual is unable to
obtain CE in a timely manner due to an extreme hardship
which existedfor a substantial portion of the certification
period.
Example might include an individual with an incapacitating
illness for as substantial portion of the certification
period. You should submit the 'CE Extension Request Form' to
the Commission well in advance of the August 31st deadline
for CE.
