May I take correspondence courses either through the mail or the Internet to complete the Board’s continuing education requirement?
No you may not use correspondence courses via the mail or Internet to complete the 12-hour continuing education requirement. The Board does not approve courses. Rather it has established a 12-hour subject matter curriculum pursuant to the new continuing education statute. The Board approved schools (providers) agree to use that curriculum in covering the material in such curriculum for licensed real estate agents. At the current time there are no approved schools (providers) offering the curriculum via correspondence either through the mail or on the internet and the Board does not plan to address that issue at least until it completes one two year cycle of continuing education (meaning all real estate agents have been given the opportunity to complete the continuing education requirement which will occur by December 31, 2000).
