Illinois General Assembly - Illinois Compiled Statutes

Updating the database of the Illinois Compiled Statutes (ILCS) is an ongoing process. Recent laws may not yet be included in the ILCS database, but they are found on this site as Public Acts soon after they become law. For information concerning the relationship between statutes and Public Acts, refer to the Guide.

Because the statute database is maintained primarily for legislative drafting purposes, statutory changes are sometimes included in the statute database before they take effect. If the source note at the end of a Section of the statutes includes a Public Act that has not yet taken effect, the version of the law that is currently in effect may have already been removed from the database and you should refer to that Public Act to see the changes made to the current law.

Sec. 1-113.18. Ethics training.

All board members of a retirement system, pension fund, or investment board created under this Code must attend ethics training of at least 8 hours per year. The training required under this Section shall include training on ethics, fiduciary duty, and investment issues and any other curriculum that the board of the retirement system, pension fund, or investment board establishes as being important for the administration of the retirement system, pension fund, or investment board. The Supreme Court of Illinois shall be responsible for ethics training and curriculum for judges designated by the Court to serve as members of a retirement system, pension fund, or investment board.


Each board shall annually certify its members' compliance with this Section and submit an annual certification to the Public Pension Division of the Department of Insurance. Judges shall annually certify compliance with the ethics training requirement and shall submit an annual certification to the Chief Justice of the Supreme Court of Illinois. For an elected or appointed trustee under Article 3 or 4 of this Code, fulfillment of the requirements of Section 1-109.3 satisfies the requirements of this Section.
