Regulatory context
Why firm training matters under CIRO's proficiency model
Under CIRO’s proficiency model, which took effect on January 1, 2026, Dealer Members must provide training to newly approved Registered Representatives and Investment Representatives within 90 days of approval, and keep records of the training they provide.
A dealer may use an external provider to deliver that training, but the dealer remains responsible for providing and overseeing it. Our courses are designed to support that responsibility; they do not replace your firm’s own supervision and record keeping.
