Tip: You can take your courses before choosing a broker; you’ll need a sponsor only to activate your license.
Most El Paso students finish in 4–8 weeks, depending on study time and scheduling:
Your timeline is mostly driven by study pace and how quickly you schedule fingerprints and the exam.
Texas uses Pearson VUE for the licensing exam. El Paso has multiple Pearson VUE testing centers; availability changes, so confirm locations and times when you schedule.
No—Spanish isn’t required, but bilingual agents have an advantage in many El Paso neighborhoods and cross-border clientele. If you’re bilingual, highlight this in your marketing; if not, partner with bilingual teammates when possible.
Income varies widely with deal volume, price points, brokerage splits, and marketing effort. New agents often ramp for several months; experienced agents can reach six figures with consistent production.
Plan for 2–3 weeks of focused prep right after your courses while the material is fresh.
Essential Study Materials:
Strategy:
Use our included tools and practice tests.
You can complete education and pass the exam before choosing a sponsor. To activate your license, TREC requires a sponsoring broker. Many El Paso students interview brokers during or right after courses to compare training, fees, and lead support.
Yes—most El Paso agents join a local REALTOR® association and MLS for tools, contracts, and lockbox access. Ask your sponsoring broker which memberships they require and the expected fees/timing for onboarding.
We teach through interaction, which is proven to be a far more effective method of learning than simply reading a boring PDF. LEAP, our proprietary content delivery platform, makes it easy for you to engage with the content you need to grow your business.
Content is the key to your success, and we’re constantly updating our courses to keep up with industry changes. We want you to learn, grow, and succeed through the most revolutionary ideas in education.
We value your time, money, and effort. We prove it by offering you your money back within 30 days of purchase so long as your course is less than 50% complete.
Most providers don’t publish their students’ pass rates. We pride ourselves on having some of the highest pass rates in the industry.
Please Note: A criminal conviction may affect a student’s ability to become licensed. If a student has committed criminal offenses, has unpaid judgments, etc., the student may request a Fitness Determination (FD) from TREC prior to filing an application. This step may save time in pursuing a license if the student does not satisfy TREC’s qualifications for honesty, trustworthiness, and integrity. See TREC’s Fitness Determination page for more information.
Hours Required by the State: 180 hours
Application Status Tracker: The Texas Real Estate Commission has launched a new application status tracker. This new tool is an easy way for anyone to track the status of initial applications, reducing delays and confusion about what comes next. You can track your status here.
Pre-Licensing Final Exams: Final exams must be passed with a minimum of 70%. Within 90 days of the original examination, a student may retest after a failed exam a maximum of one time. Otherwise, students failing the end-of-course examination must repeat the course prior to being eligible to take the end-of-course examination again.
Proctoring Final Exams: The state requires that your final course exam be proctored. You’ll need to schedule an appointment with an online proctor in advance. You can find full details of the proctoring process here. Upon passing the final course exam you will be asked to sign an affidavit verifying your identity as the student who completed the course and the final course exam.
Licensing Exam: The licensing exam is administered by PearsonVue. Registration for the state licensing exam is an entirely separate process from proctoring for your course final exam. For instructions to register for your state licensing exam and further information, please click here.
Course Completions: Students must participate in each course for the number of hours of credit awarded and daily course segments cannot exceed 12 hours. A 30-hour qualifying course cannot be started and completed in less than 3 days and starting and completing more than one qualifying course within the same 3 days is also not permitted. Our online course delivery system manages this requirement for you.
Provider Approval Number: 701046
The CE Shop’s Offering: 180 hours
Reporting: The state does not require schools to report qualifying course completions. Students will submit their certificate of completion with their license application.
Expiration Date of Course: The CE Shop’s Pre-Licensing courses expire six months after the date of purchase. Each student will be granted a one-month extension at no charge, to be applied immediately after the initial six-month term. For any reactivation or extension of the course after the seventh month, The CE Shop will charge the student 20% of the current retail price of the course for each 30-day extension or partial 30-day extension in the event that the course finally terminates before the end of the final 30-day extension. Students may also elect to re-enroll for 50% of the current retail price of the course, if the course has hit the year expiration or the student is at the 7-month mark and wants to repurchase and restart the course and enrollment. Extensions or reactivations cannot be granted beyond 12 months from the purchase of the course since, in all events, the course terminates 12 months after purchase.
Certificates: Once The CE Shop has received the signed affidavit, your certificate of course completion will become available to download (and via email). The CE Shop will provide students with an electronic certificate of completion, upon completion of the course. Certificates will remain in your account for a minimum of five years, should you need additional copies. Please refer to your license application to determine if you need to submit your certificate of completion with your license request. Course completion dates are recorded using Central Standard Time. Please note that the date of your certificate of completion will reflect this.
