MN DOC Fair Housing Training Requirements
As part of the continuing education that is due each license year and biannually in Minnesota, all residential real estate brokers and salespersons* must complete specific module training that covers topics in real estate that are significant and of current interest in the real estate market and profession. These requirements are created and/or approved by the MN DOC.
Please note: The annual MN DOC requirements around Fair Housing and Agency ARE NOT the same as NAR’s and must be completed separately.
The Minnesota Department of Commerce (MN DOC) continuing education requirements include:
- Agency Laws: At least 1.0 CE hour
- Fair Housing: At least 1.0 CE hour
Keep in mind that you cannot retake the same continuing education course for credit within the same licensing period.
*Commerical-Only Exemption
“’Commercial-only’ brokers and salespersons who are engaged solely in the commercial real estate business and whose commercial-only status has been verified with the Commerce Department through the required filing do not have to complete a course on agency law, a course on fair housing, and a specific module training course, but must fulfill all other continuing education requirements.” — MN DOC Licensing Guide
