REQUIRED HOURS

Producers in Missouri are required to take 16 hours, 3 of those being in ethics, every 2 years. The license term is 2 years from the license issuance date. A course may not be repeated more than once in a 2-year license term. All hours that are earned in excess may be carried into the next 2-year license term.


CATEGORY RESTRICTIONS

Students must take courses pertaining to their license type. Multiple lines of authority are not required to be divided evenly between the lines of authority.


SPECIAL TRAINING

• LONG TERM CARE PARTNERSHIP TRAINING - Before a Producer can sell or solicit Long Term Care Insurance they must be licensed as a Life and Health producer and complete a course approved by the Missouri Department of Insurance, Financial Institutions, and Professional Regulation for 8 hours of initial Long Term Care Training. Producers must then complete a 4-hour ongoing training requirement (pre-approved by the Missouri DIFP) each 2-year license term following the completion of the initial 8-hour training.

• FLOOD INSURANCE TRAINING - Missouri licensed producers who sell National Flood Insurance Policies are required to take a one-time 3-hour course on Flood Insurance.

Click "Get Certificate" to print your Certificate of Completion. Completions are reported typically within two (2) business days of the certificate having been issued. There is a state charge of $1.00 per credit hour. This fee will be charged prior to accessing the certification exam.

 

NONRESIDENT PRODUCERS

Producers that hold a nonresident license must submit an original and current certification letter showing compliance with their home state’s CE requirements. If the producer resides in a state that participates in the Producer Data Base, a certification letter is not required.

Producers that reside in states that do not require CE must complete Missouri approved CE courses and list them on the Missouri CE Summary Report Form.

If the nonresident producer has not taken the NAIC 8-hour LTC training in another state, they must comply with the Missouri LTC training requirements. (See Special Training requirements above).
