Q. When do I have to take ethics? A. The January 1st 2010 roll-out date has many confused on just when they need to take this course. So how can you know? The first thing you need to do is get out your license. Next, take a look at your “Renew By” date. This is the deadline for reporting your 24 hours of CE. If your renewal date is in 2010, you don’t have to take the Ethics class until after that date. If your renewal date is in 2011, you don’t have to take the class until after that date. Examples: Renew by date February 2010: Take ethics after Feb. 1, 2010 | Renew by date August 2010: Take Ethics after Aug. 1, 2010 | Renew by date January 2011:
Take Ethics after Jan. 1, 2011 | Renew by date April 2011:
