H.B. No. 1746 proposes amendments to the Texas Occupations Code regarding the approval of real estate educational programs and courses by the Texas Real Estate Commission. The bill allows the commission to establish standards for qualifying educational programs or courses in real estate and real estate inspection, specifically excluding those offered by public high schools and accredited colleges and universities. Additionally, the commission is tasked with developing minimum education and experience requirements for instructors of these courses.

The bill is set to take effect on September 1, 2025, if passed. The key change in the legislation is the exclusion of public high schools and accredited colleges and universities from the commission's approval standards for real estate educational programs.

Statutes affected:
Introduced: Occupations Code 1101.301 (Occupations Code 1101)
