Continuing-education requirements for Real Estates in Oregon

Active brokers must complete a minimum of 30 hours of certified continuing education within the two years before each renewal. Mandatory components include the Law and Rule Required Course (LARRC) and, effective Jan 1, 2026 under HB 3137, a 2-hour State and Federal Fair Housing course (LARRC reduced to 2 hours alongside it). A licensee's FIRST renewal differs: brokers must instead complete the 27-hour Broker Advanced Practices course plus the required Law/Rule and Fair Housing courses to make up the 30 hours; subsequent renewals allow the required courses plus electives to reach 30 hours. Note: Oregon's entry-level real estate license is the "broker" license (there is no separate "salesperson" tier).

How to renew your Real Estate license in Oregon

  1. Confirm your renewal deadline and current status on the Oregon Real Estate Agency portal.
  2. Complete the required 30 CE hours and confirm they appear in eLicense (Oregon Real Estate Agency online system; CE entered/self-reported in eLicense — not CE Broker).
  3. Submit the renewal application and pay the current fee online.
  4. Keep proof of CE and your renewal confirmation for your records.
Good to know: Oregon does not issue a "salesperson" license; the standard active entry-level license is the "broker" license, which is the closest equivalent. Active renewal fee is $300; inactive license renewal is $150. A $150 late renewal fee applies if renewing after expiration (within the one-year late window). CE must be completed in the 2 years prior to renewal/reactivation; keep certificates of attendance for 3 years. HB 3137 (effective Jan 1, 2026) added a mandatory 2-hour Fair Housing course and reduced LARRC to 2 hours for second and subsequent renewals.
