For the Realtor® Code of Ethics Course, you will need to pass the required final exam with a minimum score of 76. You will have multiple chances to review the course material in order to take and pass the exam.
Certificates of completion will be available for all classes you have taken on NJ Realtors® ACE, at the Realtors® Triple Play Convention and Trade Expo, or at your local board/association (if they participate with NJ Realtors® ACE). From your NJ Realtors® ACE account homepage, click on your name, found in the upper right-hand corner, and from the menu click on 'My Certificates.'
NJ Realtors® automatically reports all credits to PSI Exams, the New Jersey Real Estate Commission’s online CE tracking system.
Our online courses are timed to ensure that you have spent a minimum amount of time in the course, as mandated by the New Jersey Real Estate Commission. Only when the timer at the bottom of the page reaches zero, will you be able to click 'Next' and continue with the course.
PSI Exams is the New Jersey Real Estate Commission’s online CE tracking system. In addition to tracking all of your CE credits, including those taken on NJ Realtors® ACE, you can also search for approved providers and courses.
Visit PSI on the web. Your initial password is "L" plus your License Reference Number plus the last 4 digits of your SSN (ex: L00100019999). If you require assistance logging in, please contact PSI directly at ce@psionline.com or 877-526-6833.
Normally credits are reported to PSI several times per week. Due to the volume of credits to be verified and reported for the Realtor® Triple Play Convention & Trade Expo, it may take several weeks following the convention for all credits to be reported to PSI.
It may take two to four business days after NJ Realtors® has reported your credits for them to be posted to your PSI account. If after waiting this time, your credits still do not appear, please contact us at info@njrealtorsace.com.
