Question & Answer

Review the question and all answer choices

A

12 hours

A (12 hours) is incorrect as it represents the CE requirement for inactive license renewal in Texas, not active licenses. Many students confuse the requirements for active versus inactive status.

B

18 hours

Correct Answer
C

24 hours

C (24 hours) is incorrect as it exceeds Texas requirements. This number might be confused with requirements in other states or for different professional licenses like appraisers.

D

30 hours

D (30 hours) is incorrect as it's higher than Texas requirements. Some students may misremember this number or confuse it with requirements for real estate brokers in other states.

Why is this correct?

Answer B (18 hours) is correct because Texas Administrative Code §535.71 specifically requires 18 hours of continuing education for active license renewal, including mandatory Legal Update I and II courses.
