Description
State Requirements

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:

  • The overall vision and goals of the Code of Ethics
  • Specific ways real estate professionals put clients’ interests first
  • The ethical duties licensees owe to the public
  • Best practices when dealing with other REALTORS®’ clients
  • The dispute resolution process for REALTORS® as specified in Article 17 of the NAR Code of Ethics
  • The benefits of mediation, how to file an ethics complaint, and the complaint resolution process

*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.
