Idaho’s Core requirement:
Licensees are required to take two unique Idaho Commission Core courses in every active renewal period. Other state’s core courses will not count. Core courses may never be taken more than once for credit.
WARNING: The REALTOR Association’s Code of Ethics courses are NOT the Commission Core course!
