Why CPD Matters
Continuing Professional Development ensures real estate agents stay current with legislative changes, industry best practices, and evolving consumer protection standards. NSW, Queensland and WA make it a condition of holding a licence or registration, Victoria starts on 1 April 2027, and South Australia leaves it voluntary. Where it is mandatory, falling short can mean a penalty or non-renewal.
Finding Approved Providers
Where CPD is mandatory, check that the activity meets your regulator\'s rules. The Real Estate Institute in each state (REINSW, REIV, REIQ, REIWA, REISA) offers CPD programs. Many registered training organisations (RTOs) and online platforms also offer approved CPD. Always verify provider approval before enrolling, and keep your certificates of completion for the required retention period.
