16 hours every 2 years
24 hours every 3 years
Option C is incorrect because Virginia's renewal cycle is two years, not three years. While some states do require 24 hours every three years, Virginia specifically mandates 16 hours within its biennial renewal period.
No continuing education required
Option D is incorrect because Virginia does require continuing education for license renewal. All states have some form of continuing education or renewal requirements to maintain professional standards and knowledge.
Why is this correct?
Virginia requires 16 hours of continuing education every 2-year license renewal period, making option B correct. This biennial requirement ensures salespersons maintain current knowledge while allowing flexibility in when they complete their education.
