Real Estate Continuing Education
State-regulated CE planning with deeper current examples for Texas, New York, and Pennsylvania and a clear path back to the regulator.
Tools
Start with the calculation or planning task. The supporting text explains assumptions and what must still be verified.
Calculate continuing-education hours still needed using the requirement published by your state real-estate regulator.
Check progress against Texas’s current 18-hour CE total and required Legal Update/contract-topic components.
Check progress against New York’s current 22.5-hour CE total and selected mandatory topic requirements.
Track remaining hours against Pennsylvania’s standard 14-hour continuing-education total; first-time renewal requirements can differ.
Understand the requirement
Real-estate licenses are state-regulated, so required hours, mandatory topics, renewal dates, and first-renewal rules differ.
Texas currently uses an 18-hour CE total with Legal Update I, Legal Update II, contract-related education, and elective hours; additional supervisor/broker rules can apply.
Most New York real-estate licensees currently need 22.5 CE hours with mandatory topic categories; first-term salesperson agency hours differ.
Pennsylvania standard renewals use a 14-hour total and the current cycle includes mandatory-topic requirements; first renewals follow separate education rules.
