The courses must be sponsored or approved by the Kentucky Real Estate Commission (KREC). Kentucky requires this course to be completed by all newly active licensees subject to post-licensing education.
How It Works
Step 1
Determine Your Kentucky Requirements
Ask yourself, did I complete my post-licensing requirements as a newly licensed agent?
Newly licensed agents need 48 hours of approved post-licensing education, including 36 hours on mandatory topics and 16 hours of electives (approved mandatory hours may also count as electives).
If you are a REALTOR®, check with your local association to see if you need to complete the NAR Ethics requirement this year.
Step 2
Enroll with Ease & Learn at Your Own Pace
Once you’ve selected your courses, proceed to checkout. Enroll with ease—our variety of payment options makes it simple to get started. Your enrollment will be processed within 1-2 business days, if not sooner.
Once processed, your order status will change from “Processing” to “Complete,” and you’ll receive a confirmation email with instructions to log in to your student portal.
Once you log in to your portal, you’ll have the flexibility to learn at your own pace. Our convenient online format allows you to study on your schedule, with the ability to revisit materials as often as needed to fully grasp each topic.
Step 3
Review & Understand Requirements
Important: Kentucky requires students enrolled in online courses to:
- Complete an affidavit.
- Pass a final exam (with 3 attempts allowed).
- Complete a course survey upon finishing the course.
All of these requirements are integrated seamlessly into our courses.
Please note, Kentucky law limits students to a maximum of 9 hours of coursework per day, and this rule is strictly enforced.
Step4
Reporting and Completion
Upon completing, we electronically report your completion to KREC within 1-2 business days. For your records, a completion certificate will be emailed to the address you registered with within 7 business days.
Side Note: After While schools are required to report to KREC within 10 days, we prioritize timely reporting and strive to deliver your completion information much faster than our competitors, ensuring you stay on track and don’t lose your license. There’s no need to mail your completion certificate to KREC—we manage everything from enrollment to completion to ensure a seamless experience.
