If licensed in another state, Maryland may recognize continuing education hours completed in another state if the course and provider are approved by that state's real estate commission; however, they must meet Maryland's regulations - a real estate board, similar professional association, or educational institution; hours not less than 1.5 nor more than 6; real estate topics; dates within the preceding 2-year term; etc.

Maryland's mandated courses are applicable only to Maryland State, Maryland local, or federal laws; not other states' laws.
