Frequently Asked Questions

Please reach us at info@apexreschool.com if you cannot find an answer to your question.

Yes. The Colorado Employing Broker Course, Brokerage Administration, is offered in a fully online format, allowing you to complete the 24 required hours at your own pace while meeting Colorado licensing requirements. For anyone with an inactive or expired license that has been inactive or expired less than 37 months, you will want to complete the Broker Reactivation course to activate your license. If it has been over 37 months, give us a call or text us at 720-927-7774.


The short answer is no. Brokerage Administration can NOT be used to make up a missed ACU course. You will want to consider another option, like Broker Reactivation or Broker Recovery.


The course consists of 24 credit hours and can be completed in as little as 3-days. Because it is offered online, you can complete it on a flexible schedule that works around your current production and business commitments.  You will have up to two full years or the duration of this license cycle to complete the course online. No pressure, it's your schedule that matters, not ours.


Yes! Colorado law requires schools offering Brokerage Administration be approved and regulated by the Department of Private Occupational Schools (DPOS). Apex is an approved provider, and this course was specifically approved by DPOS for delivery in 2026. 


It is important to note that the Division of Real Estate, under DORA, accepts completion certificates for courses approved by DPOS. These will not be listed on the Division of Real Estate website so make sure you see the certificate of approval from DPOS before registering.  You can see ours below.


While meeting the education requirements for license upgrade to employing broker, this course will also award 12 hours of elective continuing education credit.
