Stay Compliant

Enrol Now

All real estate professionals in New South Wales, regardless of their licence or certificate type, are required to complete Continuing Professional Development (CPD) annually, as mandated by NSW Fair Trading. This obligation applies to the CPD year spanning from 1 July 2025 to 30 June 2026.

CPD, or Continuing Professional Development, is a yearly training requirement set by NSW Fair Trading for everyone working in the real estate industry. It ensures that all licence and certificate holders remain informed about industry updates, comply with current regulations, and continue to grow professionally.

Why You Should Take the CPD Course

  • Mandatory Training by NSW Fair Trading: Stay compliant with essential training on the latest reforms to the Residential Tenancies Act — a requirement now made compulsory by NSW Fair Trading. Failing to meet Mandatory CPD requirements can result in licence or certificate suspension or cancellation by NSW Fair Trading.
  • Face-to-Face CPD Is Now Required: NSW Fair Trading mandates that a portion of your CPD must be completed in person — no exceptions.
  • Simplify Licence Renewal: This isn’t just another course — it’s your streamlined path to compliance. Ensure your entire team meets all licensing requirements with confidence and ease.
  • Beyond Compliance: This course equips you not only to meet legal obligations but also to stay informed, capable, and ahead of the curve for the year ahead.
