FINRA recently announced that it will waive the fees for its arbitrator training programs.  This applies to both the basic arbitrator training program for new arbitrators (normally a $125 fee) and subject-specific online training modules (typically costing between $25 and $50).  So if you have been thinking of applying to be a FINRA arbitrator, or if you already are a FINRA arbitrator but need to brush up on some new developments and rules, now is the time to enroll in the training programs and save some money!
