Continuing Education for Northern Colorado Real Estate Brokers
Every Colorado licensee is a Broker, and every Broker needs 24 hours of continuing education per three-year cycle. This is a researched reference to where you can get those hours near home — plus the professional development worth your time that earns no credit at all, clearly labeled as such.

This is not an official statement of the Colorado Real Estate Commission, DORA, the Division of Real Estate, NAR, or any REALTOR association, and it is not legal advice. It is a research-derived reference compiled from the primary sources listed at the bottom of this page, retrieved on the date shown in the sidebar. Rule citations are to 4 CCR 725-1 as effective January 30, 2026; rules are amended regularly and a newer version may exist by the time you read this. Course approvals expire. The Division's own Approved Continuing Education Course List carries the note: "Data provided for informational purposes. Check with your course provider for details." Do the same — verify with the provider and with dre.colorado.gov before relying on any entry here for a license renewal.
Not everything listed here earns Colorado CE credit. Items that do not are badged "No Colorado CE credit" and are included as professional-development material only.

Four first-party resources answer most questions on this page more authoritatively than any list can. Bookmark these before anything below.
Colorado Division of Real Estate
The Division owns the rules, the approved-course list, and your renewal. When this page and the Division disagree, the Division is right.
Broker Continuing Education
The Division's own CE page, and the route to its Approved Continuing Education Course List — a searchable list of every Commission-approved course, provider, hour count and expiry date, reached from the "Approved Course List" button on this page. Its own banner reads: "Data provided for informational purposes. Check with your course provider for details."
Renewal opens 45 days before expiration by rule; operationally the Division opens it November 1, and January 31 is the last day. Renewal itself runs through the eLicense portal linked from this page.
Attending a Real Estate Commission public meeting earns 2 elective credit hours once per calendar year — the meeting must run at least two hours and you must be present for a two-hour segment. Free.Rule 4.5.H
Every rule cited on this page, in full, as adopted 2 December 2025 and effective 30 January 2026. Note that search engines often surface an older superseded version first.
Colorado has no "salesperson" license. Every licensee is a BrokerRule 1.7 at one of three levels — Associate Broker, Independent Broker, or Employing Broker — and the continuing education obligation is the same 24 hours for all of them.

Per three-year cycle
The Annual Commission Update requires a 70% passing score. If you fail, the Commission provides an alternate exam — failing once does not cost you the course.Rule 4.3.C
You may not take the same version of the ACU more than once. If you take a fourth ACU version within a cycle, that fourth class counts as elective credit only — and it cannot roll forward into your next cycle.Rule 4.2.A.1
Missed ACU years cannot be made up. Once a course year passes, that version is gone for good. See the alternative paths below.
Changing in 2027 — the ACU gets a mid-year deadline
Today you can take the Annual Commission Update any time in its course year. That changes. The rule and the Division's provider bulletin describe the same change in slightly different words, so both are quoted here verbatim:
"In 2027, the 'Annual Commission Update' must be completed by July 1st of each calendar year." — Rule 4.2.A.1
Education Provider Bulletin 2026-02 (p. 2) describes the annual deadline shifting to June 30 effective 2027, with provider course approval expiring June 30 and the course pulled from availability after that date.
The rule text is awkwardly drafted — it reads as both a one-time 2027 requirement and an ongoing annual one — while the bulletin reads as ongoing. Either way, beginning in 2027 you should not plan on taking the ACU in the second half of the year. If your cycle depends on it, take it early and confirm the current deadline with your provider.
If you missed ACU years
Missed ACU years cannot be made up. Once the course year passes, that version is gone. Three alternative paths exist when the standard 12+12 is no longer reachable:Rule 4.2.A.3–A.5
24-hour Broker Reactivation Course — available only if you are currently Active and did not use this course in the previous cycle, or if you have been Inactive or Expired for an accumulated period of up to 36 months.Rule 4.2.A.3
Pass the Colorado portion of the licensing examination.Rule 4.2.A.4Rule 2.2.A.2
72 hours of qualifying education — 48 hours of Contracts & Regulations (the rule calls it "Colorado Real Estate Contracts") plus 24 hours of Real Estate Closings.Rule 4.2.A.5Rules 2.1.A.2.b–c
A broker who cannot satisfy CE through the first three options must use the examination or the 72-hour path before activating an Inactive license or reinstating an Expired one.Rule 4.2.B
New licensees
An initial broker license expires December 31 of the year it was issued.C.R.S. 12-10-203
Brokers renewing a license that expires December 31 of the year it was first issued are exempt from CE for that initial period.Rule 4.1.BC.R.S. 12-10-213(4)
After that initial period you enter the standard three-year cycle with the full 24-hour obligation.
Any broker who has never submitted fingerprints for the one-time criminal history check must do so before renewing an Active license. This targets legacy licensees — applicants licensed under current Rule 2.3 fingerprint at application, so it is generally not a first-renewal action for a newly licensed broker.Rule 3.11.B.3.c
Inactive, expired and reinstatement
CE is not required to renew an Inactive license. CE is required before renewing an Active license, activating an Inactive one, or reinstating an Expired one to Active. But an Inactive broker must still renew and pay the fee — inactive is not dormant.Rule 4.1.ARules 1.27, 3.12.C
Inactive longer than 36 months: complete either the State portion of the Colorado Broker's Exam or the 72-hour path (48 Contracts & Regulations + 24 Closings).Rule 4.2.A.5
Lapse

Resulting expiration
31 days or less
Renewal fee
As set forth in Rule 3.11.B.3
31 days – 1 year
Renewal fee + ½ renewal fee
3 years from the prior license's expiration date
1 – 3 years
Renewal fee + full renewal fee
3 years from the prior license's expiration date
Reinstatement tiers per Rule 3.15. The "three years from prior expiration" outcome is new in the current rule — the superseded version set the new expiration at December 31 of the year of issuance.
The three-year cliff
Rule 3.15 provides reinstatement tiers up to three years and stops there, and that is not an oversight — three years is a hard cutoff. The Division states it plainly: “Reinstatement is only available for 3 years past the date of license expiration. Any licensee who fails to reinstate within 3 years of license expiration date must reapply for that license.”
“Reapply” is less brutal than it sounds. For an Associate Broker license issued on or after 1 January 1997, Rule 2.6.F requires the Commission to verify your original licensure to confirm the qualifying education was already completed — so you do not repeat the 168 hours — and then requires you to pass the Real Estate Licensing Examination again Rule 2.2.A and submit fingerprints Rule 2.3 via a new license application.Rule 2.6.F
For licenses issued on or before 31 December 1996, Rules 2.6.G and 2.6.H require a shorter prescribed course list instead — Colorado Real Estate Contracts and Real Estate Closings, and for former salespersons also Trust Accounts and Record Keeping, Current Legal Issues, and Practical Application — plus the same examination and fingerprinting.
The short version: after three years the license is gone and you file a new application with a new exam and new fingerprints, but your original qualifying education is credited rather than redone. Confirm your own situation with the Division before acting — which path applies turns on the date your license was first issued.
Verified 2026-08-04 against the rule text (4 CCR 725-1, ruleVersionId 12355) and the Division's Broker Steps for License Reinstatement page, which is the source of the quoted three-year language.
The renewal window
By rule, renewal opens 45 days before expiration.Rule 3.11.B.3.a Operationally the Division opens renewal on November 1, and January 31 is the last day. All CE must be completed on or before December 31 of your expiration year — the 31-day grace period extends the renewal deadline, not the CE deadline.
Credit mechanics — the rules brokers get wrong
Rule
Constraint
4.5.A
Maximum 8 hours of credit per day.
4.5.B
No course may be repeated for credit in the same calendar year.
4.5.C
Hours in excess of 24 cannot be carried forward to the next cycle.
4.5.D
Education stipulated as part of a disciplinary action does not count.
4.5.E
Credit must come from a Commission-approved provider or a Rule 4.6.A.2-exempt provider.
4.5.F
The entire course is required — no partial credit.
4.5.G
Instructors receive up to six credit hours for instruction per license cycle.
4.5.H
2 elective hours for attending a Real Estate Commission public meeting — the meeting must be at least 2 hours long, you must be present for a 2-hour segment, and it counts once per calendar year. The current rule does not require attendance in person.
4.5.I
You are responsible for obtaining proof of completion from the provider.
4.5.J
Retain completion certificates 4 years.
4.5.K
Submitting a renewal application attests to CE compliance — and a non-compliant broker must give the Division written notification before applying. Both halves matter; the second is an audit trap.
4.5.L
The Commission may demand proof on written notice, and failure to produce it is grounds for discipline. The Division runs a Continuing Education Audit program.
Eligible elective topics — a closed list
Elective content must reinforce Colorado regulatory compliance, and must fall within these 22 topics.Rule 4.4.B.1C.R.S. 12-10-213(3)
Real Estate LawProperty ExchangesReal Estate ContractsReal Estate FinanceReal Estate AppraisalReal Estate ClosingReal Estate EthicsCondominiums and CooperativesReal Estate Time-SharingReal Estate Marketing PrinciplesReal Estate ConstructionLand DevelopmentReal Estate Energy ConcernsReal Estate GeologyWater and Waste ManagementCommercial Real EstateReal Estate Securities and SyndicationsProperty ManagementReal Estate Computer PrinciplesBrokerage Administration and ManagementAgencyAny other subject matter approved by the Commission
Separately, Rule 4.4.D defines the advanced topics eligible for Employing Broker Level education — brokerage administration, legal compliance, regulatory practice, contract negotiation and enforcement, licensing procedures, risk management, and specialised areas such as property management, commercial brokerage, land acquisition, investment analysis and development. That is what the state list's "Employing Broker Credits" column maps to. It is not the same thing as the 24-hour Brokerage Administration course required to upgrade to an Employing Broker license under Rule 2.1.B.
Ineligible subject matter — all seven categories
These do not earn Colorado CE credit no matter who offers them or what the marketing says. The 30 January 2026 rule added items (e), (f) and (g) — if you learned this list before 2026, you learned four items and there are now seven.Rule 4.4.B.2
(a) Sales or marketing meetings conducted in the general course of brokerage practice.
(b) Orientation, personal growth, self-improvement, self-promotion, or marketing sessions.
(c) Motivational meetings or seminars.
(d) Examination preparation or exam technique courses.
(e)New in 2026. "Instruction focused on prospecting, or techniques for marketing, including staging, branding, or social media use, unless directly tied to regulatory compliance."
(f)New in 2026. "Property tours or site visits that do not include substantive instruction on an approved topic or regulatory matters."
(g)New in 2026. "Marketing or promotion of a product or service, whether offered by the provider, an instructor, a sponsor, or any other affiliated or unaffiliated party." Education Provider Bulletin 2026-02 notes a narrow MLS-training exception.
Why (e) and (g) will surprise you
Item (e) covers most of what gets sold as "business skills" training — prospecting systems, personal branding, social media, staging. Item (g) targets sponsor-paid education: the free lunch-and-learn from a title company, lender, or home warranty provider. If the substance of the class is the sponsor's product, it does not earn CE credit even when the flyer says it does.
This is not a reason to skip those classes — several are genuinely useful, and a sponsored class that is really about Colorado contracts or closings law can still qualify. It is a reason not to count on them for your 24 hours. Every item on this page that falls into one of these seven categories is badged "No Colorado CE credit".
Approved providers — and the exemption most brokers miss
Approved providers submit a timed outline, exam, instructor credentials and delivery-method evidence at least 30 days before first offering a course. Distance learning must be ARELLO-certified or equivalent. Approval runs three years, and no credit may be awarded for a course taken outside its approval window.Rules 4.6.A.1, 4.6.B, 4.6.C, 4.6.D
"Not on the state list" does not mean "not valid CE"
Four categories of provider are exempt from Commission pre-approval entirely — for elective credit only, within the 22 topics above, and in compliance with all other provisions of Chapter 4. All three conditions are required.Rule 4.6.A.2
(a) Accredited colleges, universities, community and junior colleges, public or parochial schools, or government agencies. · (b) Quasi-governmental agencies. · (c) Courses approved under another occupational licensing authority's education requirements. · (d) Real-property-law courses from a provider approved by the Colorado Board of Continuing Legal and Judicial Education.
Front Range Community College, Aims Community College and CSU offerings fall under (a) and will never appear on the Division's approved-course list. Searching that list and finding nothing is not evidence a course is invalid. Items on this page in that tier are badged "Exempt provider" with the subsection cited.
The corollary matters at audit time: a completion certificate must show your name, the course subject as approved, credits granted, dates and provider authentication — but the course-number field was repealed, and the approval number is required only "if applicable."Rule 4.7.A An exempt provider's certificate legitimately carries no approval number. A missing number is not a red flag.
Errors & omissions insurance
Not continuing education, but the other thing that quietly moves a license to Inactive. Every Active broker, and every brokerage firm with more than one broker, must carry E&O covering all acts requiring a license.Rule 3.9C.R.S. 12-10-204 The Commission group-policy carrier must hold an A.M. Best rating of A- or better.Rule 3.9.A.2 Independent policies are permitted, but the carrier must comply with Colorado Division of Insurance requirements, be authorised to write E&O in Colorado, and also meet the A- rating requirement.Rule 3.9.C A lapse moves your license to Inactive.Rule 3.9.D Many policies expire January 1, and a lapse can also cost you prior-acts coverage.

Colorado State University (College of Business, Everitt Real Estate Center)
Undergraduate CSU course covering legal regulations applicable to real property ownership and transfer, real estate agents, and use of real property. As an accredited-university course it is exempt from Commission pre-approval under Rule 4.6.A.2.a and its topic matches the Rule 4.4.B.1 'Real Estate Law' category, so it can count for elective CE for a broker who enrolls, though it is a full-length academic course rather than a short CE seminar.
Price is not stated on this catalog page. CSU bills resident tuition per credit hour (reported elsewhere as $632.61/credit for 2025-26 and 2026-27) for this 3-credit course, but that figure comes from CSU's separate Hub billing page, which was not independently fetched/verified here.

Division Webinar Series: Designated Brokerage and Informed Consent
Colorado Division of Real Estate
A Colorado Division of Real Estate webinar presented by Division Director Waters on informed consent under the Real Estate Broker Practice Act and how it applies to designated brokerage relationships (buyer's, seller's, landlord's, and transaction-broker roles). Government-agency instruction on an eligible Agency/Real Estate Law topic; exempt from Commission pre-approval under Rule 4.6.A.2.a. The page does not itself state a CE hour value or that CE credit is granted for viewing, so a broker should confirm hours/eligibility before claiming credit.

CHFA Real Estate Professional CE Class: Creating Homeownership in Colorado
Colorado Housing and Finance Authority (CHFA)
A free two-hour webinar taught by CHFA, a quasi-governmental state housing finance authority, covering CHFA's mortgage loan programs, borrower eligibility, and down payment assistance options for real estate professionals. No cost, no membership required, open to any licensed Colorado broker.
Time: Two-hour live webinar (sessions held on March 31, May 20, September 17, and November 17, 2026).
CHFA is a quasi-governmental agency (4.6.A.2.b exempt provider), so pre-approval is not required; page does not display a course approval number, consistent with Rule 4.7.A (not a red flag).

Membership requirement — not a Colorado license requirement
This is the single most common error in agent-facing CE content, and it cuts both ways: brokers who are not REALTORS think they owe training they do not, and REALTORS who satisfy their state CE assume they are square with NAR when they are not. These requirements are enforced by suspension and termination of REALTOR membership, not by the Colorado Real Estate Commission. Missing them does not endanger your license. It does endanger your membership, your MLS access, and everything that hangs off them.
Code of Ethics training — 2.5 hours per three-year cycle.Cycle 8 runs 1 January 2025 through 31 December 2027. Non-completion suspends membership through January and February following the deadline, with termination from March 1. Emeritus members are exempt.
Fair Housing / anti-bias training — 2 hours, on joining and every three years thereafter, aligned to the same cycle.
Confirmed: Colorado imposes no separate ethics-training mandate
The Real Estate Commission requires no ethics course for licensure. "Real Estate Ethics" appears only as an eligible elective topic in Rule 4.4.B.1, and nothing else in Chapter 4 requires it. If you are a REALTOR, your Code of Ethics course may also be approved for Colorado elective CE — when it is, the card below carries both badges, and those hours count twice over. When it is not, it counts only toward membership.
