NAR Code of Ethics Course

The Code of Ethics is the foundation of the REALTOR® organization and provides the standards of practice and professionalism that customers expect and deserve. The training must meet specific learning objectives and criteria established by the National Association of REALTORS®. REALTORS® are required to complete ethics training of not less than 2 hours, 30 minutes of instructional time within three-year cycles. A new three-year cycle (cycle 7) began 1/1/25. The deadline for this cycle is 12/31/27. Please note that this is a completely separate requirement than the ethics training required from the NMREC for licensing.

NAR currently offers two options, one of which is a free course that fulfills the NAR licensing requirement but is no longer offered for CE credit. If you would like to receive CE credit along with fulfilling the NAR requirement, you must complete the paid CE version.

(Please note, if you have taken the Code of Ethics with another entity besides the above NAR online Code of Ethics, you will need to provide your certificate of completion to CARNM for your record)

Instructors: Robyn Dyche CCIM & Walt Clements CCIM

Prerequisites: 

• CI 101: Financial Analysis for Commercial Investment Real Estate
• Completion of one of the following interest-based negotiations courses:
  • Preparing to Negotiate (self-paced online)
  • Commercial Real Estate Negotiations (one-day workshop)

CI 104 encompasses the entire life cycle of an investment, from refinancing to capital improvements to disposition. Within each case study, you will encounter a key investor decision: Should a non-taxable investor acquire an investment with or without debt financing? What if the investor is taxable? During the holding period of an investment, should an investor make a discretionary capital expenditure or not? How does an investor evaluate disposition alternatives?

CI 104 uses advanced analyses to build on the core CCIM concepts. Sensitivity analysis allows you to pinpoint exactly how slight changes in market fundamentals affect investment goals. Risk analysis uses past performance to anticipate how an investment is exposed to external and internal threats. Learn how to mitigate those threats through smart planning and negotiations.

After completing this course, you will be able to:

• apply key investor decision-making analyses to optimize investment returns;
• more effectively forecast investment performance by quantifying real estate risk; and
• leverage CCIM analytical tools to improve decision making.
