License Renewal Requirement

Use our handy checklist to help you keep track of what you need to do. Access it at the bottom of this page. 

Please note: Code of Ethics training is NOT a requirement of license renewal! Read the section below.

What Classes have you taken?

Both states require 12 hours of CE (Continuing Education) every two years.

Both real estate commissions post on their websites the classes you have attended.  (Please allow 1-2 weeks for recently attended classes to appear).

For Kansas:

Click here and then select "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.

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.

For Missouri:

Click here and then select "MREC License Search." Enter your name and click on "Detail." If your classes do not appear, contact MREC at 573-751-2628.

About Missouri renewal:

Everyone, regardless of license issue date, renews in even numbered years. You need 12 hours of CE dated after 10/1/2012. However, brokers can count hours taken after 7/1/2012. 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 2014 and Salespersons renew in September 2014.

KCRAR CE Credit:

All our course descriptions explain if our courses are mandatory or elective. Some of our offerings are non-credit workshops that are not for CE credit, but are for "Get Smart" credit.

Code of Ethics training:

This is required in the four-year cycle between 01/01/2013 and 12/31/2016. 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.
