Complete New Jersey Continuing Education Coursework Online
Every 2 years, the New Jersey Real Estate Commission (NJ REC) requires 12 hours of real estate continuing education (CE) with an approved provider like us. The requirements are identical whether you're licensed as a broker, a broker-salesperson, or a salesperson.
Our New Jersey CE courses are taken entirely online – no need to commute to a classroom. You can finish them at your own pace, on your own schedule.
Meet Real Estate CE Requirements with Courses that Interest You
NJ REC's continuing education requirements include:
- At least 2 hours on ethics
- At least 4 more hours of other "core topics"
- The remaining hours can either be electives or additional core topics
We offer a package of courses that meet all requirements, for your convenience. If the included electives don't interest you, check out our a la carte courses – we have additional electives you can use instead to build your own CE.
Get Your Credits On Time
All license renewals are due by June 30th in odd-numbered years, but your continuing education has to be completed by April 30th of that year.
Once you finish each CE course, we'll report your credits to NJ REC by their preferred method. You'll also be able to print or download a certificate of completion. The state of New Jersey recommends you keep your certificates on file, just in case.

FAQs
How do I know you're a NJ REC-approved course provider?
You can find us on the list of continuing education providers through NJ REC's online portal.
If I'm a new agent, do I need Continuing Education?
If you earn your salesperson license within the FIRST year of a renewal cycle (before July 1st of an even-numbered year), then you are responsible for meeting your CE requirements.
If you earn your salesperson license in the 12 months prior to renewal, you don't need to complete your CE until the next cycle.
What is the deadline for completing my continuing education courses?
All licensees in New Jersey have the same deadline for continuing education: April 30th of every odd-numbered year (2021, 2023, 2025, etc).
Late CE will result in a fine. NJ REC advises that it's your responsibility to account for the 10-day reporting delay.
Your renewal application is due a couple months later, by June 30th.
