Training Courses
CLASS 1 & CLASS 2 LICENCE HOLDERS
WHAT ARE MY CPD OBLIGATIONS?
All licensed agents are required to complete their CPD within each CPD anniversary year, regardless of when their license is due for renewal. The CPD anniversary year runs between the 23rd March to 22nd March each year.
Commencing from the 23rd March 2023, all licensed agents are required to complete compulsory CPD topics as outlined by NSW Office of Fair Trading.
If you’re a property agent who holds a class 1 or class 2 licence, you must complete 4 hours of training on compulsory topics relevant to the class of licence you hold each CPD year.
Compulsory topics must be delivered in:
- a face-to-face interactive training environment – maximum 40 attendees, or
- an interactive webinar – maximum 25 attendees, and
- include an assessment activity.
If you are unable to attend four hours of CPD training in an interactive environment, you may complete your training via an online / self paced program that must equate to a minimum of 10 hours of CPD training as an alternative.

LICENSEE OBLIGATIONS
Training Plans
All agencies licensed under the Property and Stock Agents Act 2002 are required to prepare and maintain an annual training plan for their agency, which connects the performance goals of the whole agencies with the training needs of all agents employed there.
Nominated Licensees in Charge are responsible for the development and implementation of the training plan, as well as reviewing and updating it annually.
The foundation of the annual training plan prepared by a licensee in charge will be the compulsory CPD set by the Property Services Commissioner annually. But this is only a legal minimum for agents to remain licensed – their training and development needs will go beyond what’s required by law. The training plan must also include further training for agents’ development and to boost performance of the whole agency.
When planning the training needs of the agency and individual agents, licensees in charge can use the capability framework below to think about how both compulsory CPD and further, non-compulsory training serve professional development needs of individual agents. Each training exercise can be identified as enhancing one or more of the capability streams, and involve a combination of interactive training, online courses, workshops, mentoring, and job shadowing.
