CATEGORY RESTRICTIONS
Licensees may take an approved course in any line of authority to obtain their CE credits, but it is recommended that they take courses pertaining to their license type.
SPECIAL TRAINING
• LONG TERM CARE PARTNERSHIP TRAINING - Before a Producer can sell or solicit Long Term Care Insurance they must be licensed as an Arizona Life and Health Producer. Further, they must complete an initial 8 hours of state approved Long Term Care Training. Producers must then complete a 4-hour ongoing training requirement every 4-year license term in order to stay in compliance.
• FLOOD INSURANCE TRAINING - Arizona licensed producers who sell National Flood Insurance Policies are required to take a one-time 3-hour course on Flood Insurance.
• ANNUITY SUITABILITY TRAINING - Arizona licensed producers must complete a state approved 4-hour Annuity Best Interest course before selling, soliciting or negotiating any annuity products. The ExamFX Annuity Suitability Best Interest Standard course satisfies this requirement.
COURSE PRESENTATION
• CERTIFICATE EXAM – Licensees are required to pass the certification exam with a 70% or better.
• STUDY BY TOPIC QUIZZES – ExamFX recommends that all Study by Topic Quizzes are passed with a 70% or better.
• ATTESTATION – Because the proctor requirement has been eliminated, exam takers should complete the proctor form at the end of the Certificate exam using "No Proctor" as the proctor first/last name and enter their own address and email. The system requires all information to be completed in order to proceed.
CERTIFICATES OF COMPLETION AND REPORTING
Your certificate of completion will be processed within two (2) business days and can be downloaded/printed from the "View Certificate(s)" link in the course launch portal. Completions are normally reported to the state within two (2) business days of the certificate having been issued. There is a state charge of $1.00 per credit hour in order to report the completion. This fee will be charged prior to accessing the certificate exam.
NON-RESIDENT PRODUCERS
Non-resident producers are not required to take CE in Arizona if they have completed CE in their home state and remain in good standing. If the home state does not
have a CE requirement, non-resident producers must comply with Arizona’s CE requirement.

The following are exempt from Arizona CE requirements:
• If a producer has been continuously licensed in Arizona since 1995 and has never held a non-resident license, they are exempt from the CE requirement.
