A newly licensed Georgia salesperson is asking about the overall framework for license renewal. What is the standard renewal cycle and total continuing education requirement for Georgia real estate licensees?

Correct Answer

A) Licenses renew on a four-year cycle requiring 36 hours of continuing education.

Under GREC Rule 520-1-.05 and Rule 520-2-.03, Georgia real estate licenses operate on a four-year renewal cycle. During each cycle, licensees must generally complete 36 hours of approved continuing education. This framework applies to both salespersons and brokers, though the 2025 rule change added broker-specific content requirements within those 36 hours.

Answer Options
A
Licenses renew on a four-year cycle requiring 36 hours of continuing education.
B
Licenses renew on a two-year cycle requiring 24 hours of continuing education.
C
Licenses renew on a four-year cycle, but the first renewal requires only the 25-hour postlicense course with no additional CE.
D
Licenses renew annually, with 9 hours of continuing education required each year.
