Reading time : 2 minutes

Investment Adviser Representatives with a Continuing Education requirement for 2025 must complete their Investment Adviser Representative Continuing Education (IAR CE) courses before 4:00 PM Eastern Time on Friday, December 26, 2025. This deadline coincides with the FINRA system shutdown.

As IAR CE course providers need to manually upload course completion results to the state regulatory via the FINRA system, IARs are encouraged to complete their IAR CE courses for 2025 well in advance of the December 26 deadline, to ensure that course completion results are successfully received by the FINRA system.

Failure to complete the required IAR CE by the deadline may automatically affect registration status, depending on the applicable state regulations.
