Alaska CE renewal: common questions
How many CE hours do Alaska real estate licensees need?
20 hours each two-year license period: an 8-hour Commission-designated core curriculum and 12 contact hours of electives.
When do Alaska licenses expire?
January 31 of even-numbered years, regardless of when they were issued. Licenses issued within 90 days of that date are issued to the next biennium.
Is there a grace period?
No. It's illegal to work on a lapsed license, so renew on or before the expiration date.
Can out-of-state courses count?
Licensees may receive CE credit for courses attended outside Alaska if they meet the Commission's requirements.
