AYPORealEstate offers CE course packages that fulfill Minnesota's real estate license renewal requirements.
New licensees have until their first renewal term to complete the continuing education (CE) requirement, regardless of when their license was initially issued, and are only required to complete the module due at their renewal.
Commercial-only real estate sales associates and brokers may be exempt from modules assigned by the Minnesota Department of Commerce but must apply for exemption approval.
Licensees cannot repeat a course for credit toward their CE requirement during the same renewal term. Additional or duplicate credits earned cannot carry over into the next biennial period.
No more than 8 hours of coursework completed within a 24-hour period will be accepted toward your Minnesota real estate CE requirement.
CE course final exams are closed-book and require a third-party proctor. Upon exam completion, the proctor must submit a signed affidavit.
To receive credit toward your CE requirement, you must earn a score of 75% or higher on your course exam. If you fail on the first attempt, you can retake the exam as many times as needed until you achieve a passing score. However, per Minnesota state law, you cannot review the details of your final exam results.
