Complete Your Code of Ethics Requirement
Complete your Code of Ethics requirement
The National Association
of REALTORS® – not the NC Real Estate Commission – has
mandated that all REALTORS® must complete an approved Code of Ethics class
every four years.
The second quadrennial cycle began January 1, 2005, and ends December 31,
2008. So, failure to fulfill this obligation by then will result in your
termination from NAR and the loss of all concomitant benefits, including
MLS access.
Have you completed your
Mandatory Code of Ethics class yet? If yes, have you confirmed that your
current association has record of it? If you’re not
sure if you have taken the class, call your association or check
online at www.rrar.com under “Membership
Services” as soon as possible.
If the association does not, then you must obtain an original certificate
of completion from the organization where you took the class and present
it to your association. No copies or faxes are accepted. Also, you must be
certain the course has been approved by your local association.
If you have no proof
that you have taken the Code of Ethics class since January 1, 2005, then
you must take the class again before December 31, 2008. (Note: If you have
joined a REALTOR® association and been through New Member
Orientation since January 1, 2005, then you have automatically fulfilled
your Code of Ethics requirement. The Code of Ethics class is taught during
all associations’ orientations).
If you know for sure
that you haven’t taken the class yet, sign up for one as
soon as possible. There are several ways to fulfill the requirement:
- Complete a four-hour Continuing Education (CE) elective course. Approved
courses are listed below.
- Take the online
CE course, #2494 through www.rrar.com.
- Attend the two and
a half hour Code of Ethics portion of our New Member Orientation – which doesn’t carry CE credit – offered
the first and third Thursday of every month. Cost is $25 and space is
very limited. Call Susan Jones at (919) 654-5400 to sign up.
