ALL HOURS MAY BE COMPLETED BY SELF-STUDY.
Exams are non-monitored.
Life/Health and/or Property/Casualty licensees can carry over up to 10 hours to the next renewal cycle. There is NO carryover allowance for Adjusters. Courses carried forward will count as a duplicate if completed again in the current renewal cycle.

Bail Bond Producers are required to take Specific “Bail Bond Course Subject materials” (We do not carry these)
Continuing education is only required for resident insurance producers and adjusters. This includes insurance adjusters that have designated Louisiana as their “home state” for the purpose of licensing.
Reminder: A course may not be taken for credit more than once within the 2-year renewal period. In other words, courses are repeatable as long as these are taken after 2 years and hours from the previous cycle have not carried forward to the current cycle.
