CRS Designees will now be required to take two hours of CRS education within a calendar year, in addition to paying their dues, to maintain their designation standing. This change was approved by the Board at the Annual Meeting as a measure to help differentiate the CRS designation.
The new requirement will take effect for the 2018 renewal period. CRS Designees will have the entire 2017 calendar year to earn the two hours of education credit they need prior to renewal. The two hours can be fulfilled by taking any CRS classroom, eLearning course, live or recorded CRS webinar, or by attending Sell-a-bration®.
