I have already earned some CE for the 2021-2022 year. Do I need to complete all the IAR Member Benefit CE courses to earn any hours through this program?

Do I have to complete my CE online? No, but IAR Member Benefit CE is online only. Check with your local association, MIBOR division, or broker/member school for in-person classes.
Do I have to complete my CE through IAR/RECP? Of course not, but Member Benefit CE is included in your IAR dues. The only requirement is that you complete your CE through a state-approved provider with state-approved curriculum. There are many choices.

Important Info for New Brokers

You do not need to complete CE during the first two years you are licensed. Instead, you need to complete a 30-hour post-licensing course during this time. Here is a chart that shows the deadline for your post-licensing course and when you need to begin completing CE. You renew your license on the same cycle as all Brokers, which is every three (3) years. The next license renewal deadline is June 30, 2023.
