    Looking for Licensing information?

    All Real Estate Salesperson and Brokers licenses are issued through the Board of Realty Regulation, a division of the Montana Department of Labor & Industry. Visit realestate.mt.gov for licensing information.

    How do I renew my license?

    Your license is issued by the Board of Realty Regulation (BRR). You renew your license through BRR. The BRR requires that all Real Estate Salespersons complete a minimum of 12 credits of Continuing Education. Brokers with the Supervising Broker Endorsement must also complete 12 Continuing Education credits, 4 of which are the Supervising Broker Update course. Click Here to login to the BRR site to renew your license.


    How do I purchase an NMAR Education Voucher? 

    NMAR offers 70-90+ hours of Continuing Education credit each education year (January - October). As an NMAR member, you can purchase the Education Voucher through the NMAR Member Portal which grants access to all the classes available for the current education year for one low price! You do have the ability to purchase individual classes or online classes through our other affiliates but not at the Education Voucher Price. Our classroom is hybrid - virtual, and in-person- so we encourage you to participate in whatever works for you. However, our in-person capacity is limited to 55, but virtual attendance is unlimited!

    NMAR Members - click here to purchase the NMAR education voucher. You need to do this before you attempt to register for classes. Wait for the Education Voucher/Membership to be approved (you'll get an email and a receipt for your payment). Once you've received your approval email you can register for any class that you wish.
