 Mandatory Continuing Education
 Licensing Requirements

To renew a broker's and salesperson's license ...

... a licensee must obtain 14 hours of Mandatory Continuing Education (MCE). 

Only brokers, associate brokers, and salespersons seeking to renew their licenses are required to complete the MCE requirement. New licensees are exempt from the MCE requirement if their license is issued after Dec. 1 of the year preceding the renewal deadline. 

Hours for MCE instruction may be obtained at Polley Associates. 

All 14 hours may be taken in elective courses. For license renewal, the Pennsylvania State Real Estate Commission has discontinued the need for the 7-hour "required" course it demanded in earlier periods. 

Ninety percent of live classroom MCE sessions must be attended for course credit. One hundred percent of online MCE sessions must be completed for course credit. The Commission requires a photo ID for attendance verification in live classroom settings. Failure to comply can void course approval. 

If your license is in escrow, the 14 hours of MCE must be taken before activating the license. 

You have two options to fulfill the requirement: 

  • Option 1: Take any live or online elective MCE courses (totaling 14 hours) during the renewal period;
  • Option 2: Take any Broker Elective Course of 15 or 30 hours.
