Vermont law requires insurance agents or brokers to meet the continuing education (CE) requirement each 24-month licensing period. Upon a producer's license renewal and every renewal thereafter, a producer must complete 24 hours of approved continuing education courses during the preceding two years. Of the 24 hours requirement, no more than six credits may come from credit categorized as Agency Management.
All licensed agents are required to take 3 Hour Flood Course (one time requirement - if you have already taken it then you are all set, but if you are newly licensed you will need to take the 3 hour requirement.)
All licensed agents are required to take 3 Hour Ethics Course every two years.
To meet these requirements, producers must take courses approved for Vermont Insurance Continuing Education. (See the CE Calendar for eligible classes)
**The continuing education requirements do not apply to an agent or broker until after the first renewal or first eligibility for renewal of their license.
For more detailed information regarding continuing education, contact the Thompson Prometric website under the topic titled For Pre-Licensing/Continuing Education and then Vermont Licensees.
