As a State school, you are able to find what classes you have taken both under IDFPR CE Lookup and Illinois REALTORS®. Please know that anything you haven’t taken with CCAR or Illinois REALTORS® will not show up at Illinois REALTORS®, however, it should show up on IDFPR. If you are having trouble finding your records either email gabbyp@illinihomes.com or call 217-356-1389 and CCAR will be happy to help you.
As all education has to be sent to IDFPR if you are trying to find out before renewing what you have taken you can check this at IDFPR CE Lookup. Again if you are unable to find what you are looking for please contact CCAR at 217-356-1389 or email at gabbyp@illinihomes.com and CCAR will be happy to help.
