Under Missouri law, which of the following is NOT a ground for disciplinary action by the Missouri Real Estate Commission (MREC) against a licensee?

Correct Answer

A) Failing to complete the required 72 hours of pre-license education before obtaining a license

Failing to complete the required 72 hours of pre-license education before obtaining a license is NOT a post-licensure ground for MREC disciplinary action — it is a pre-licensure eligibility requirement. If a candidate did not complete the required education, MREC would not issue the license in the first place. Once a license is issued, MREC's disciplinary authority focuses on conduct occurring after licensure. The pre-license education requirement is enforced through the application and examination process, not through post-issuance discipline.
