What are the new IAR CE Requirements, and do they apply to you?


On November 24, 2020, North American Securities Administration Association (NASAA) members elected to adopt an investment adviser representative (IAR) continuing education requirement (CE) with the goal of ensuring that advisers receive proper and updated training on the securities business relevant to their duties and obligations.


Check out this blog on what to know about IAR CE requirements and whether or not you’ll be required to complete the 12-credit hours this year.


If you are unsure whether or not you are registered as an Investment Advisor Representative (IAR), go to IAPD - Investment Adviser Public Disclosure - Homepage (sec.gov), search your name, find your record and select “more details”. If under License(s), Michigan is listed as Investment Advisor, the IRA CE requirement applies to you.


If you find that you need to fulfill your IAR requirements, we have partnered with COMPLY to deliver an IAR Continuing Education Workshop. Attend this virtual two-day workshop, hosted by COMPLY’s regulatory experts, on Jun. 27 - 28, 2023 to achieve your 2023 IAR CE requirements. For more information or to register, click here.


Can’t attend the entire two days? No problem because when you register, you gain unlimited access to COMPLY’s comprehensive IAR CE content library until Dec. 31, 2023, to fulfill your requirements on your time! 


Please note that this workshop is for IAR CE's only and does not qualify for CFP CE's or Michigan Insurance CE's.


FPA Member discounted rate: $95

Non-FPA Member rate: $150

Join us on June 15th! Most of us have enough insurance knowledge, as they say, to make us dangerous. We know insurance is critical to the financial planning process, but do we really know enough to help our clients? How do we integrate this into our practice without having to become an insurance professional? At the June Lunch & Learn Grand Rapids, Rich Carrico of Carrico Maldegen Insurance Agency will present “Solving the Puzzle: Easily Integrate Insurance into your Financial Planning Process”. Learn how insurance supports the financial planning process, address the risks your clients are facing, and provide immediate solutions you can implement to solve the insurance dilemma.
