All investment adviser representatives who are registered in the District of Columbia must complete twelve credit hours of IAR CE on an annual basis, effective January 1, 2023  \nWho must comply with the District of Columbia IAR CE Rule?  \nAll investment adviser representatives registered in the District of Columbia must comply with the District’s IAR CE Rule. An IAR with a home state other than the District of Columbia who is registered or required to be registered in the District of Columbia will be considered in compliance if: (1) the investment adviser representative’s Home State has continuing education requirements that are at least as stringent as NASAA’s Model Rule, and (2) the investment adviser representative follows the Home State’s IAR CE requirements.  \nWhen must IARs begin complying with the District of Columbia IAR CE Rule?  \nImmediately under the rule, an investment adviser representative’s initial reporting period with the District of Columbia commences the first day of the first full Reporting Period after the individual is registered or required to be registered with the District. Compliance will begin with the 2023 calendar year for currently registered investment adviser representatives. Newly registering investment adviser representatives must comply by the end of the first full calendar year following the year they become registered.  \nHow many credits are required each year?  \nEach year, six credits of IAR Products and Practice Content and six credits of Ethics and Professional Responsibility are required. At least three of the Ethics and Professional Responsibility credits must cover ethics.  \nIs there an exception for dually registered IARs that satisfy their continuing education requirements for FINRA?  \nPartially. A representative who is dually registered as an agent of a FINRA member brokerdealer and who complies with FINRA’s continuing education requirements will satisfy the Products, and Practices portion of the requirement provided the FINRA continuing education meets specific standards set out by NASAA. The IAR must still complete six credits of Ethics and Professional Responsibility courses, including at least three ethics credits.  \nAre there any exceptions to the CE requirement for IARs with a professional designation or other specified qualifications?  \nYes. To the extent that the professional designation is current and qualifies the individual for an examination waiver in the District of Columbia, continuing education credits earned for the  \nprofessional designation can qualify for IAR CE credits. Note, however, that the course must be “Approved IAR Continuing Education Content,” meaning that IARs must seek out courses that their credentialing organization and NASAA have approved to earn dual credit.  \nWhat happens if an IAR does not fulfill the CE requirement for one or more calendar years?  \nSuppose an IAR does not fulfill the annual requirement by the end of the calendar year. In that case, the IAR’s registration status will be set to “CE Inactive,” which will be viewable by the District of Columbia Securities Division and by the public on IAPD and Broker Check. The CE Inactive status will remain until the deficiencies are corrected or the Securities Division takes further action. Suppose the CE Inactive status persists through the close of the following calendar year. In that case, the IAR will be ineligible to renew their registration or to initiate anew IAR registration until the deficiency is corrected.  \nCan an IAR “carry over” credits earned in one calendar year to the next, provided they have met the current annual requirement?  \nNo, credits earned more than the annual requirement cannot be used to satisfy the CE requirement in subsequent years.
