Beginning January 1, 2017 through December 31, 2018, and for successive two (2) year periods thereafter, REALTORS® are required to complete biennial ethics training of not less than two (2) hours and thirty (30) minutes of instructional time (with the exception of REALTOR® members granted REALTOR® Emeritus status by the National Association). REALTORS® completing such training during any two (2) year cycle shall not be required to complete additional ethics training in respect of this requirement as a requirement of membership in any other Board or Association.  

This requirement will be satisfied by submitting your Ethics Certificate to MFCAR which shows that you've completed this class through an approved association, the NATIONAL ASSOCIATION OF REALTORS®, the CE Shop or any other recognized educational institution.

A REALTOR® completing the new member Code of Ethics orientation during any two (2) year cycle shall not be required to complete additional ethics training in respect of this requirement until a new two (2) year cycle commences.  Failure to complete the required periodic ethics training shall be considered a violation of a membership duty. 

Failure to satisfy the required periodic ethics training will result in suspension of membership for the first two months (January and February) of the year following the end of the two (2) year cycle or until the requirement is met, whichever occurs sooner. On March 1 of that year, the membership of a member who is still suspended as of that date will be automatically terminated.
