Aligned to the requirements of the current NAR cycle, this 2.5 hour course provides a careful review of the National Association of REALTORS®’ Code of Ethics and Standards of Practice. The code outlines the ethical duties all REALTORS® agree to follow as part of the membership. NAR says these duties “provide a high level of service and professionalism to clients/customers and are the key factor separating REALTORS® from all other real estate practitioners.”
Beyond reviewing all parts of the code, you’ll also take a close look at recent revisions and real-life examples relating to various articles, and we’ll examine the benefits of mediation over arbitration. This version of the course has NOT been approved for CE credit. Also, in order to provide information to your local REALTOR® Association and facilitate reporting of the NAR Ethics requirement, please enter your NRDS ID (NAR membership ID) on the course affidavit upon completion of this course.
Course highlights include:
*This course meets the REALTORS® Code of Ethics Training Requirement. You will need to confirm with your local REALTOR® association if they will accept it.
This course was designed to meet the REALTOR® Code of Ethics Training Requirement. Please confirm that your local association, who administers the Code of Ethics training, will accept this course.
