Attention real estate agents and brokers. Lets not forget that Continuing education or what we lovingly refer to as CEU’s are due by the end of June and some real estate companies require that agents get it done even sooner. This is our busiest time of year. We used to be on an honor system but now CEU is tracked electronically. I know agents who have had their license expire and brokers who have said it isn’t their responsibility . . . but it kind of is.
It is the brokers job to make sure that each licensee has a license and that the license is renewed and to have it renewed each agent needs at least 30 CEU credits and there are required modules.
As many agents have found out the hard way the required national code of ethics training does not count as part of Minnesota CEU.
Two years ago a local broker forgot to get their own license renewed and as a result all agents in that company became unlicensed. Agents please protect your self by checking your own credits through pulse portal and keep an eye on your broker too.
When an agent or brokers license expires he or she loses access and it is of course illegal to represent another for a fee in a real estate transaction without a real estate license unless you are an attorney.
