The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) has adopted major changes to its continuing education (CE) and registration rules. 

According to FINRA Regulatory Notice 21-41, one of the amendments will require registered persons to complete CE Regulatory Element annually for each representative or principal registration category that they hold. In addition to the changes, the amendments will expressly allow firms to consider other required training toward satisfying an individual's annual CE Firm Element and extend the Firm Element requirement to all registered persons.
