You can begin our narrated course from phone, tablet or computer. No special apps are needed and your 24/7 access is instantaneous. Simply, click the ‘My Courses’ tab and the button labeled ‘Open.’  Launch your first chapter and begin learning. Our instructor will walk you through each topic, drawing from readily-applied; real-world examples from his over 35+ years of practicing in real estate. The course is self-paced, allowing to print notes, review previous chapters, and re-take quizzes as often as you like throughout the 6 mo. access period. And when life calls you away to take a phone call, pick up the kids, or go on vacation, you have the luxury to stop-and-go whenever please.  Simply click ‘exit’ and the program saves your place. If required by your State, the course includes any required course surveys / tests. As a general rule, REMI’s process and tests (when required) are entirely online. There is no charge and you will not have to start the course over if at any time you fail. There is no attempt limit. Some States may have exceptions to the above. Check if your State is one of the exceptions ahead of purchase.

The process of issuing course credit / certificates differs from State-to-State.  REMI will send you an email to let you know we have processed your completion usually within 1-3 business days (allow 8 to be safe). It will include the additional steps (if any) that are required.

If you have any questions about our process, feel free to call us: (808) 230-8200

Our courses are phone / tablet compatible. 

If you do not see the presentation, check that pop-ups are enabled on your device.  For example, if you using Safari, you can go to the gray Settings icon, then scroll to Safari, and then scroll down to Block Pop-ups to be sure that the setting is gray / inactive.  If your setting is green, it means pop-ups are blocked and the presentation cannot launch in a new window.

Each 20-hr CE Renewal package is equally designed to meet the 20-hr renewal requirement in Hawaii. Each includes the mandatory Core A and B courses until 5/20 of odd-numbered years and 14 hrs of electives. 

About Core courses: The State of Hawaii expires its Core A and B courses on 5/31 in odd-numbered years.  Once the State expires the Core courses, licensees will take electives in their place until the next Core courses come out in the even-numbered year. Every biennium, Core A and B are always based on legislation sessions / law updates. The new Core courses are only released by the State once their respective legislation sessions take place. 

Verify information / check for updates ahead of purchase.

Once you have completed the course requirements, your completion goes into queue for processing. Processing often occurs within 1-3 business days, allow 8 to be safe. Some States enable the school (us) to report your credits directly into the State's database (ex: Hawaii, Missouri, Georgia). However, this isn't always the case. It is best to check with the licensing authority to ensure you understand your State's deadlines, 'paperwork' and information requirements.  After completing the courses, licensees are responsible for checking with the State to ensure the State has everything they need.

Once you complete a course, allow 1-3 business days for processing (8 days just to be safe).  Once processed, the course should appear in your PVL account on ehawaii.gov.  As we process each course, we send a confirmation email to you. After completing all your courses, it is time for you to verify you have everything you need for your smooth license renewal (ex: course credits, paperwork, payment).

You can review the info on ehawaii.gov or log into your PVL account for more information. You can access your PVL account by clicking https://pvl.ehawaii.gov/rece/app/welcome.html
