Home Inspector Continuing Education

Home Inspectors are required to complete 24 hours of approved continuing education within their two-year license renewal period prior to the expiration date in order to renew their license.

Appraisal Continuing Education

Appraisal licensees are required to take twenty-eight (28) hours of Department of State approved continuing education every two years within their license renewal period. Continuing education credits can be earned via in-classroom instruction or through approved distance learning courses. Additionally, all licensed or certified real estate appraisers must successfully complete the 7 hour Ethics & Standards of Professional Practice program every two years. Appraisers may only receive 7 hours of CE credit for the Ethics & Standards of Professional Practice course once during the 2 year period.

Courses cannot be repeated within the same license period.

In order to obtain a certificate of completion for Continuing Education, appraisers must attend 100% of any course or program that is 2 to 7 hours in length. Courses or programs that are 8 to 20 hours in length require 80% attendance.
