SB 1495 changed the requirements of the Practice course in 2024
SB 1495 ensures that every new and returning license applicant is educated on both bias awareness and fair housing practices through a fully integrated Real Estate Practice course. If your existing course lacks these updates and your application is for 2024 or later, you’re required to retake the entire course—there’s no shortcut.
