6 hours annually
Six hours annually would total 12 hours over two years in terms of quantity, but New Jersey does not structure its CE requirement on an annual basis — the requirement is measured over the entire two-year renewal period, not year by year.
12 hours every 2 years
24 hours every 3 years
Twenty-four hours every three years is not New Jersey's standard; this figure and timeframe do not correspond to any current NJ Real Estate Commission CE mandate and may be confused with requirements from other licensed professions or other states.
No continuing education required
Claiming no continuing education is required is factually incorrect and dangerous for a licensee to believe, as failure to complete the 12-hour CE requirement will result in license renewal denial by the New Jersey Real Estate Commission.
Why is this correct?
Under N.J.A.C. 11:5-12.1, the New Jersey Real Estate Commission mandates that all active licensees complete 12 hours of continuing education during each two-year license renewal cycle. These hours must include specific core topics such as ethics, fair housing, and agency law, with the remainder being elective credits. This requirement applies to both salespersons and brokers seeking to renew their licenses in good standing.
