Colorado 2025 Annual Commission Update
The Division of Real Estate is tasked by statute with keeping licensees informed of license law and legislative, statute, and rule changes related to practicing real estate in Colorado. The 2025 ACU course offers fresh information brokers need now. It covers the following topics: compliance, general practice issues, new regulations, new forms and contracts, and Commission news and resources to keep you up to date on what you need to know for your real estate practice.
Each active licensed broker must complete the ACU course by achieving a passing score of 70% or greater on the course examination developed by the commission.
As always, it is recommended that brokers take the Annual Commission Update (ACU) course between January and June. Be sure to mark your annual calendar to avoid a last-minute rush.
