November is Designation A wareness Month! NAR establishedNovember as an important
month in which to encourage its members to start or complete an officially endorsed designation or certification through NAR or one of its Institutes, Societies and Councils. In today’s market, continuing education
is your best way to stay ahead of the com- petition. Now more than ever, successful agents must keep current on issues, involv- ing technology, changing legalities, and many other central components of the business. NAR and its Institutes, Societies and Councils offer advanced designation and certification programs to help mem- bers remain up-to-date in such a dynamic environment. Although other designations exist, only these carry an official NAR en- dorsement. Look to NAR for the resources you need to stay on top of trends, including many high-value online courses offered through REALTOR®
University. Continuing
education credit can be earned by com- pleting many of the designation and cer- tification courses. REALTORS®
who pursue professional des-
ignations have a distinct competitive edge as a result of their increased expertise and marketability. Based on the 2013 NAR Mem- ber Profile survey data, the median income of REALTORS®
with no designation was
$33,500, and the median income of those with at least one designation was $61,100. The difference between the two is $27,600. NAR strongly encourage its members to
increase their professional image, market - ability, productivity and earnings through the pursuance of a designation or certi - fication program. For a complete list of the official NAR family designations and cer tifications, please visit
