In order to simplify your license renewal process and CE verification, South Carolina Real Estate Commission has partnered with CE Broker as their official CE tracking system.
Through this partnership you have access to a free Basic Account. This account provides you an easy way to track your CE online and simplifies maintenance of your CE records and completion certificates. We urge all Salesperson, Broker, and Broker in Charge licensees to sign up for accounts with CE Broker.
