Which courses must I take to satisfy my continuing education requirements?

As a licensee, you must complete 15 credits of Continuing Education (CE) during each two year licensing period. All courses must be completed through a Provider Organization (Provider) approved by the New York State Department of Financial Services.

Effective April 1, 2022, an agent or broker will be unable to renew a license unless their 15 hours of continuing education include:

  • At least one hour of courses on ethics and professionalism
  • At least one hour of courses on the provisions of New York insurance law and regulations
  • At least one hour of courses on "implicit and explicit bias; equal access to justice; serving a diverse population; diversity and inclusion initiatives in the insurance industry; and sensitivity to cultural and other differences when interacting with clients, potential clients, or other members of the public."
  • For all property-casualty licensed producers, at least one hour of courses on  the sale of flood insurance through the National Flood Insurance Program (NFIP)
  • For producers who sell coverage through the NFIP, at least three hours of enhanced flood insurance instruction

Courses are offered in either the classroom/speech/seminar method of instruction (indicated by an NYCR approval number) or the self-study (textbook or internet) method of instruction (indicated by an NYCS approval number).

If you are a sublicensee on a corporate license, the CE requirement deadline for all types of agent and broker licenses is June 30 of odd-numbered years.
