UPCOMING CLASSES:

NAR QUADRENNIAL ETHICS REQUIREMENT

The end of the next quadrennial Ethics requirement for N.A.R. ends December 31, 2008.  Sometime between now and then, agents that have not taken an Ethics course of some kind in 2005, 2006, 2007 and 2008 will need to do so by the date mentioned above.  GRI Ethics, MRE Professional Standards, MRE Overcoming Obstacles, NAR Ethics online at realtor.org, NAR Ethics taken in a classroom or online at VanEd are all acceptable Ethics courses.  The course is not required for license renewal by the Commission, but hours earned for Ethics courses may be used for elective credits toward license renewal.  The Ethics course online at NAR does not offer CE credit, but does fulfill the requirement.  Click below to find the July and August NAR Ethics classes.
 

CREC Update Course: 

This course will present the most current changes in real estate law, forms and rules in Colorado.

Effective April 1, 2006, each active licensed Colorado broker must complete the "Annual Commission Update" course twice during each license period or 8 hours, plus electives for a total of 24 hours of CE during your renewal cycle. A licensee may not take the same version of the Update Course more than once during each license period. If the Update Course is taken three times during a license period, the licensee will receive elective credit hours for the third course.
