FINRA Proposes Web-Based Delivery Method for Completing Regulatory Element of Continuing Education Requirements (Fed. Reg.)

The FINRA proposal to amend Rule 1250 ("Continuing Education Requirements") was published in the Federal Register. The proposed rule change would provide a web-based delivery method for completing regulatory element of the continuing education requirements.

The proposed rule change also would amend Section 4(f) of Schedule A to the FINRA By-Laws to establish a fee for the Web-based delivery of the Regulatory Element. The proposed rule change would phase out the current option of completing the Regulatory Element in a test center, as well as the current option for in-firm delivery of the Regulatory Element.

Additionally, FINRA proposed to delete NASD Rule 1043, Incorporated NYSE Rule 345A and NYSE Rule Interpretation 345A.

Comments on the proposal are due by July 8, 2015.
