Complete One Year in One Purchase
Each of the 3 yearly bundles covers a full year of your cycle, including a Fair Housing class toward your annual requirement.
See the official annual and 3-year breakdown, the Fair Housing requirement effective February 13, 2024, and which Education Pathways classes satisfy each one.

Every calendar year of your 3-year cycle needs at least 6 hours, split as shown below. Over the full 3-year cycle that totals 6 hours legal + 3 hours Fair Housing + 9 hours elective = 18 hours.
This summary reflects Michigan’s continuing education framework including the Fair Housing requirement effective February 13, 2024. Requirements can change — confirm current rules at michigan.gov/lara before relying on this page.
Michigan doesn’t publish one shared statewide CE or renewal deadline — your license cycle and renewal date run from your own license issuance date. Confirm your exact dates through your LARA licensing account.
Since November 1, 2018, LARA requires continuing education courses to be reviewed and certified by CE Marketplace (operated by Michigan Realtors®) for the credit to count toward renewal. Education Pathways’ Michigan courses are CE Marketplace certified, and completions are reported to your CE Marketplace profile — usually within 24 hours, though the governing agency can take a few days to post it.
Michigan doesn’t use a single school-wide provider number the way some states do. Each Education Pathways Michigan course instead carries its own individual CE Marketplace certification number — see the CE Classes page for details on each class.
Courses are online and self-paced. Live product pages state that learners receive a certificate of completion and retain access for 12 months after purchase.
Each of the 3 bundles below packages two 3-hour classes into a complete 6-hour bundle — enough to satisfy one full year of your 3-year cycle in a single purchase, and each includes a Fair Housing–focused class toward your 1-hour annual minimum.
Michigan Civil Rights Laws and Fair Housing (Bundle #1) · Foreclosures and Fair Housing (Bundle #2) · Michigan Role of Cultural Diversity in Fair Housing (Bundle #3) — one per bundle.
Real Estate Code of Ethics (Bundle #1) · Residential Loan Market and Reverse Mortgages (Bundle #2) · Technology and Real Estate Brokerage (Bundle #3).
Each of the 3 yearly bundles covers a full year of your cycle, including a Fair Housing class toward your annual requirement.
Add all 3 yearly bundles to your cart to cover your entire 3-year, 18-hour cycle — no single combined bundle exists yet, so each is purchased separately at $17.99.
Michigan real estate salespersons and brokers complete at least 18 clock hours of continuing education every 3-year license cycle, with a minimum of 6 hours required in each calendar year of that cycle.
Each calendar year must include at least 2 hours covering real estate law, rules, and court cases, and at least 1 hour of Fair Housing coursework, effective February 13, 2024. The remaining hours in that year may be general real estate education.
