A Michigan real estate CE provider completed an approved course on property management and issued certificates of completion to 15 agents. Three months later, LARA-BPL notified the provider that its course approval had been revoked retroactively due to non-compliance with content standards. Which of the following best describes the impact on the agents who completed the course?

Correct Answer

B) The agents must re-complete those CE hours using a currently approved course, as LARA-BPL does not recognize hours from retroactively revoked courses

Under LARA-BPL's CE framework, the validity of CE hours depends on the course being approved at the time credit is claimed for renewal purposes. When a course's approval is revoked — even retroactively — the hours completed under that course may not count toward the CE requirement. Agents who relied on a now-revoked course must re-complete those hours using a currently approved course to satisfy their renewal obligation. LARA-BPL's course approval process is designed to ensure content quality, and retroactive revocation reflects a finding that the course did not meet required standards.

Answer Options
A
The agents' CE hours are protected because they completed the course in good faith while it was still approved, and LARA-BPL cannot retroactively invalidate earned hours
B
The agents must re-complete those CE hours using a currently approved course, as LARA-BPL does not recognize hours from retroactively revoked courses
C
The agents may petition LARA-BPL for a hardship waiver covering the invalidated hours, which is routinely granted in cases of provider non-compliance
D
The agents are automatically granted a 6-month extension of their renewal deadline to allow time to replace the invalidated CE hours
