Delaware Real Estate License Renewal Dates and Continuing Education Requirements
Delaware real estate licenses must be renewed every even-numbered year. To renew a license, you must fulfill the Delaware real estate continuing education requirements by April 30 of each renewal year.
Licensees who are renewing for a second or subsequent time must complete 21 hours of continuing education (CE) courses.
First Time Renewals for Salespersons, Brokers, and Associate Brokers:
Brokers, associate brokers, and salespersons who are renewing a license for the first time must complete a prorated number of continuing education (CE) hours. The number of hours required is based on how many months prior to the renewal date the license was issued:
| Broker, Associate Broker, Salesperson License | |
|---|---|
| IF you are issued the license... | THEN you must complete... |
| On or after 5/1 even years but before 11/1 even years | 18 hours |
| On or after 11/1 even years but before 5/1 odd years | 12 hours |
| On or after 5/1 odd years but before 11/1 odd years | 6 hours |
| On or after 11/1 odd years but before 1/1 even years | 0 hours |
| On or after 1/1 even years but before 5/1 even years | 21 hours |
This schedule does not apply to brokers or associate brokers changing from one license type to the other.
In addition, if you are a new salesperson who was not previously licensed in another jurisdiction, you must complete the four Newly Licensed Salesperson modules within the first year of licensure. Each module consists of a 3-hour course. The 12 credit hours earned from these modules may be counted towards your total continuing education requirement.
The remaining hours of your requirement must be distributed as follows:
- If you are required to complete 6 or 12 hours, the Newly Licensed Salesperson modules will fulfill your total CE requirement.
- If you are required to complete 18 hours, you must select two courses from core modules 1, 5, or 6 to fulfill the rest of your requirement.
- If you are required to complete 21 hours, you must take core modules 1, 5, and 6 to fulfill the rest of your requirement.
CE Hours Required by Delaware for Subsequent Renewals:
After your first renewal, you are required to complete 21 hours of CE credits for each subsequent renewal term. To fulfill this requirement, you must select 3 hours from each of the following modules:
- Core Module 1: Agency and Fair Housing
- Core Module 2: Professional Standards
- Core Module 3: Real Estate Documents
- Core Module 4: Office Management
