Dear IRWA members and nonmembers,
The International Executive Committee has approved the International Professional Education Committee’s recommendation of Course 102 – Elevating Your Ethical Awareness to serve as the only premier IRWA course that can be purchased and completed to fulfill the ethics requirement for any of IRWA’s certifications and designations.
Course 102 Online, like the in-person version, was developed with the intention of eventually replacing 103 and 104; it also contains the most current updates on IRWA’s Ethical Rules, Standards of Practice and Disciplinary Procedures.
Those who have already purchased Course 103 Online – Ethics and the Right of Way Profession or Course 104 Online – Standards of Practice for the Right of Way Professional within the last five years will still be able to access, complete and use those courses towards qualifying and continuing education. However, these courses will be removed for purchase from the IRWA University website beginning May 16, 2022.
Thank you so much for your support and understanding as we continue to provide you with the highest quality education and credentialing programs in the right of way industry.
