Rachel completed her Washington broker pre-license education three years ago but never took the exam. She now wants to use those completed clock hours toward her current application. Under Washington DOL rules, which of the following is most accurate?

Correct Answer

D) Rachel's clock hours expired after two years and she must retake the full 120-hour pre-license curriculum

Under WAC 308-124A, Washington pre-license education clock hours are valid for two years from the date of completion. Because Rachel completed her education three years ago, her clock hours have expired and she must retake the full 120-hour pre-license curriculum (90-hour Real Estate Fundamentals and 30-hour Real Estate Practices) at a DOL-approved school before she is eligible to sit for the broker examination.

Answer Options
A
Rachel's clock hours are still valid because Washington has no expiration date on completed pre-license education
B
Rachel's clock hours expired after one year and she must retake the full 120-hour pre-license curriculum
C
Rachel may use her completed hours but must take a 30-hour refresher course approved by the DOL
D
Rachel's clock hours expired after two years and she must retake the full 120-hour pre-license curriculum
