Which penalty can the Maine Real Estate Commission NOT impose?

The Maine Real Estate Commission has the authority to enforce various penalties on real estate licensees who violate laws and regulations. Among these penalties includes the ability to suspend or revoke a real estate license, impose fines on licensees, and set fees. However, requiring mandatory real estate coursework is not a penalty that the Commission can impose in response to violations. While the Commission may recommend or suggest continuing education requirements to maintain a license, mandating specific coursework as a direct penalty falls outside its enforcement powers. This distinction highlights the focus of the Commission on disciplinary actions related to licensing and financial penalties rather than mandating educational requirements as a form of punishment.
