Reporting: The state requires course completions to be reported to the state. We will report your course to the state upon completion.
Expiration Date of Course: Course expiration dates vary by course. Each individual course will have an expiration date listed in your account. See Terms & Conditions for more details.
Certificates: If you want or need to print the Certificate of Completion issued by the Hawaii Real Estate Commission, you will need to wait until the end of the next business day AFTER you have completed your course. Go to the HI website to print that certificate.
If you are trying to reactivate or restore your license you will need to send the Hawaii Real Estate Commission certificate to Hawaii with your paperwork. Please refer to your renewal application to determine if you need to submit your Certificate(s) of Completion with your renewal. Course completion dates are recorded using Central Standard Time. Please note that the date on your Certificate of Completion will reflect this.
Final Exam: Passing a final exam is not required to receive continuing education credit in Hawaii, therefore our system is set up so that final exams can be passed with a 0% passing score.
Hawaii License Renewal Process: The process to renew in this state is to log in to the licensing system online and follow the prompts to renew.
Course Duplication: A Hawaii real estate licensee can repeat the same CE course every other biennium. A licensee shall not take a continuing education course for which the licensee has already received a certificate within two consecutive biennia. For make-up credits, for example, if a licensee took a course in 2020 (2020-2022 biennium) and wants the course marked as make-up and credited to the 2018-2020 biennium, the biennium in which they first took the course is the marker to determine two consecutive biennia. That biennium marker is the 2020-2022 biennium. The licensee may then take the same course in the 2024-2026 biennia.
