Have You Met the Code of Ethics Requirement?

Make sure you're aware of the upcoming member education deadlines and the latest NAR member benefits.

Dec. 31 is the deadline for all REALTORS® to complete a refresher course on the REALTOR® Code of Ethics. If the last time you took Code of Ethics training was 2012 or earlier, you can complete the National Association of REALTORS® online ethics courses or contact your local association for other training options. Training must include a minimum of two hours and 30 minutes of instructional time and meet specific learning objectives and criteria.

The new “with continuing education” online REALTOR® Code of Ethics training course ($29.95) offers a highly engaging and interactive experience plus an estimated three credit hours of continuing education in many states. This course is available through the Center for REALTOR® Development at www.onlinelearning.REALTOR.

The free online ethics course option is available at realtor.org. For more on the REALTOR® Code of Ethics training, visit realtor.org/code-of-ethics/training.
