Hawaii Real Estate Continuing Education Information Now Available Online at http://www.eHawaii.gov

HONOLULU-(Business Wire)-October 1, 2008 - The Hawaii Department of Commerce and Consumer Affairs’ Real Estate Commission encourages the state’s nearly 15,000 active licensed real estate professionals to access key continuing education information online. The new service is available through the state’s official Web site (http://www.eHawaii.gov).

This new system provides Hawaii’s real estate licensees with the ability to view the number of continuing education (CE) hours required and earned for the current licensing period, their CE history, and to search for future CE courses being offered by approved providers. Real estate licensees are also given a greater level of control by accessing and reprinting their own course completion certificates for the current and previous certification periods. In the past, this could only be done by the approved CE providers.

In addition, real estate principal brokers and brokers-in-charge may monitor and view the current CE hours, CE history, and license status of all licensees associated with the brokerage. The system is updated daily and is simple to use.

“This new system integrates all parts of the continuing education process, from provider course submission and approval to real estate licensee access of continuing education information, course offerings, and approved providers,” said Neil Fujitani, supervising executive officer of the Real Estate Branch. “This integrated service will help manage and efficiently serve our real estate licensees.”
