Both states require 12 hours of CE (Continuing Education) every two years. Use the checklist to help you keep track. See link at the bottom of this page.

What classes have you taken?
Both real estate commissions post on their websites the classes you have attended. (Allow 1-2 weeks for a class you took to show up.)

For Kansas:
Go here and and click on “Check CEU Hours.” You can renew your license online if all your hours are showing. Otherwise, print a renewal form from there and mail it with the latest copies of your course certificates.

For Missouri:
Go here and click on “MREC License Search,” then enter your name and click on “Detail.” This is new for Missouri, and if your classes do not appear contact them at 573-751-2628.

Details about Missouri renewal:
For the 2012 renewal, all existing licensees must be fingerprinted. This is a new requirement and no other fingerprinting from other sources or excuses will be accepted. This can only be done with http://www.l1enrollment.com/state/?st=mo. Here is the state regulation: http://pr.mo.gov/boards/realestate/fingerprints.pdf.

Everyone, regardless of license issue date, renews in even numbered years. You need 12 hours of CE dated after 10/1/2010. However, brokers can count hours taken after 7/1/2010. Whether broker or salesperson, you must take the 3-hour Missouri required course titled "Representation Options in the State of Missouri" (at KCRAR, this is titled "Two State Core" and is a CC course code prefix) and nine hours of elective classes. Brokers renew in June 2012 and Salespersons renew in September 2012.

Details about Kansas renewal:
Everyone renews at a different time in a two-year period depending on your last initial. When is yours? Scroll down to see our chart below. For the course codes on your certificates, you need a three-hour course starting with M (Salesperson and Broker Core - at KCRAR we title this as "Two State Core" and is an M course code prefix) and also nine hours of classes starting with the letter E. (Brokers must have three hours starting with M and also three hours starting with MB [Kansas Broker Core], and then six hours starting with E.) On this website, read the course descriptions and you'll see if a class is mandatory (required), or if it is an elective. License expiration dates are staggered over a two-year period. Education and renewal of license are due on the last day of the month immediately preceding the license expiration date. See chart below. Renewals made in the expiration month are assessed $50 extra by the real estate commission.

Both states:
If you take all your classes at KCRAR, you can be assured your courses will count for each state simultaneously. Therefore, taking four classes of 3 hours each will satisfy both states.

Code of Ethics training:
This is required in the four-year cycle between 12/31/2008 and 12/31/2012. This is a requirement of remaining a REALTOR® and has nothing to do with license renewal. Your “Education History” record at KCRAR.com will show if you have attended this. Make sure your completion date is within the dates of this current cycle.
