Wisconsin real estate licensees are required to complete continuing education before renewing their license, with one exception for certain newly licensed salespersons.
What are the CE requirements for a newly licensed salesperson or broker?
- Salesperson: If your original Wisconsin salesperson license was issued after October 1 of an even-numbered year, you do not need to complete CE for that biennium. Otherwise, you must complete the required CE before renewing your license.
- Broker: There is no CE exemption for newly licensed brokers. If you receive a Wisconsin broker license during a biennium, you must complete the required CE before renewing it.
If you’re not sure when your license needs to be renewed, check the expiration date on your DSPS-issued license.
Completing your CE when required keeps your Wisconsin real estate license ready for renewal. New licensees should not assume they are exempt simply because they recently received their license.
