CE in FinPro

Transforming the Securities Industry CE Program

FINRA has adopted important changes to its continuing education (CE) and registration rules to train registered persons more effectively while accommodating registered persons whose personal circumstances take them away from the industry for a time.

 

Did you know? Regulatory Element CE can be applied to satisfy up to six hours of IAR (Investment Adviser Representative) CE. Firms can manage this process in Firm Settings, or dually-registered individuals can make the request in FinPro. 


Registered individuals access Regulatory Element Continuing Education (CE) via FinPro. Learn more about accessing and completing CE below.


Accessing FinPro

FinPro users must create account credentials (user id, password and security challenge questions) as well as verify their identity with Transunion to access the system. (Tip: See the FinPro Account Creation Guide for guidance if you have not yet created a FinPro account.)

FinPro cannot be accessed with Internet Explorer. Use a supported browser to log in.

First-Time FinPro Users


Before creating an account: Have you self-enrolled in an exam or used one of these FINRA systems? If so, you can use the same system credentials to log in to FinPro.

Can’t remember your user id or password? Recover them via email.
 

Returning FinPro Users


If you have logged in to FinPro before, sign in or quickly retrieve your credentials through the buttons below.
