I found myself down at the TREC office yesterday and asked them when they anticipated the approval of the iNACHI Ethics Course. Their reply was that they had just yesterday received every thing from iNACHI and they anticipated 4 to 6 weeks before approval. It's looking like I may have to do another online course somewhere.....
If your license expires soon you may want to look elsewhere!!

My TREC license renews the end of April. Sure hope it is approved by then. Will I have to retake the class after the approval?

TREC approved it last week:

Texas Real Estate Commission (TREC) approved InterNACHI's free, online Texas Standards of Practice/Legal/Ethics course for pre-licensure as well as continuing education.

Good Afternoon All - For those looking for the SoP/Legal/Ethics Updates class, TPREIA has an 8 hour TREC Approved Class scheduled for 3/24 in Houston and 4/21 in Corpus, right now. TPREIA and InterNACHI work together to bring education to all of their members. The class is for TPREIA Members, but if you are an InterNACHI Member, you can become a TPREIA Member for free.

If you have questions or I can help, email or call.
