The continuing
education requirement to renew an active license or to reactivate a license
is 16 elective hours plus one (1) Commission CORE course. If you are licensed in another
state, it is likely your CE from that state can be applied toward your Idaho elective requirement. Please see our website to obtain a
Licensee’s Request for CE Credit form, which you should submit in
advance of your renewal date with the requested documentation. Idaho real estate schools automatically
provide proof of most course completions to the Commission. Check your education online at www.irec.idaho.gov by registering a
user name and password and accessing your records through the Online
Services link.

E&O Insurance Renewals are Due
NOW
All Rice Insurance Services E&O
policies expire at midnight on October 1, even if you just recently purchased
the insurance for the first time.
If you do not have other E&O coverage, you must renew
your policy directly with Rice by October 1 to avoid a $100 minimum
fine. It’s easy to renew
online at www.risceo.com (click the “Idaho” tab on
the left). The premium is $165
again this year. We’ve
heard Rice is charging an additional $5 convenience fee for online renewals
this year, so please don’t delay if you are planning to mail in a
check. Rice must receive
your renewal by October 1 (a Wednesday).
All active licensees must maintain
E&O insurance, regardless of whether you practiced or not. It’s very important to renew
on time so you don’t lose your retroactive date or have any gaps in
your coverage. IREC staff and
the Commissioners thank you for your help!!
Ethics Training Requirement: For questions about the upcoming deadline for mandatory ethics
training, please contact your local REALTOR® association. The ethics training is a requirement
for NAR® membership only -- not a requirement for your real
estate license. However, some
ethics courses are certified for continuing education credit and may also
count toward your CE for renewal or reactivation of your license.
