FAQs
How do I know you're a California DRE-approved course provider?
AgentCampus by 360training's DRE Sponsor# 6242
How quickly can I get through my first-time renewal course?
The DRE sets a couple rules:
- You need to study for at least as many hours in a course as the credit-hours the course is worth.
- You're limited to studying 8 hours a day, so it should take at least 6 full-time days to finish 45 hours.
- You can't take more than 15 credit-hours' worth of final exams within a 24-hour period.
Please note, YOU are responsible for monitoring your compliance, so if you take multiple exams on the same day, pay attention to the total credit hours.
What is the deadline for completing my continuing education courses?
CE is due every 4 years before your license expiration. It's important to submit your renewal on time, because you're not allowed to conduct licensed activities after your expiration date passes.
When do my courses expire?
Your courses will expire one (1) year after you purchase them (the date you submit payment), unless the course itself indicates otherwise.
For more information about course expiration dates, please read our Terms of Use.
