Required Hours

Vermont licensed producers are required to take 24 hours of CE, including 3 hours of Ethics, every 2-year license term.

Vermont’s license term is 2 years ending March 31, in odd numbered years. No carry over credits are allowed and courses cannot be taken more than once in a reporting period.

NOTE: Be sure to complete all of your CE credit hours BEFORE submitting your license renewal application.

Category Restrictions

Producers 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. No more than 6 hours can be related to insurance agency management in a renewal period.

Special Training

• LONG-TERM CARE PARTNERSHIP TRAINING – Before a producer can sell or solicit Long-Term Care Insurance, they must complete a state approved, one-time 8-hour Long-Term Care Training course. Producers are also required to take 2 hours of Vermont specific Medicaid training, which may be included in the initial 8-hour course or taken on its own. Producers must then complete a 4-hour ongoing training requirement on or before March 31 of odd-numbered calendar years in order to stay in compliance.

• ANNUITY BEST INTEREST TRAINING – Vermont licensed producers must complete a one-time state approved 4-hour Annuity Suitability Best Interest course before selling, soliciting or negotiating  any annuity products.

• FLOOD INSURANCE TRAINING – Vermont licensed Property/Casualty and Personal Lines producers who sell National Flood Insurance Policies are required to take a one-time 3-hour course on Flood Insurance.

Course Presentation

• CERTIFICATE EXAM – Licensees are required to pass the certificate 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 – The attestation must be completed following the certificate exam.

Certificates of Completion

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 entities within two (2) business days of the certificate having been issued. There is a state charge of $1.60 per credit hour to report your completion. This fee will be charged prior to accessing the certificate exam.

Non-Resident Producers

A non-resident producer who satisfies the continuing education requirements of their home state will be deemed compliant with Vermont’s CE requirement. Non-residents of Vermont may satisfy NAIC LTC course requirements in another state, but they will need to take a 2-hour Vermont Medicaid course before they can begin soliciting products. Residents who have satisfied the Annuity Best Interest training in a non-resident state are compliant in Vermont.

CE Exemptions

The following are exempt from Vermont CE requirements:

• Producers licensed less than 2 years at the time of first renewal

• Producers holding any limited or restricted licenses

• Limited Line Representatives, Title Insurance, Travel Accident, and Travel Baggage Insurance

• Non-residents who are compliant with their home states CE requirement

License Renewal

Once the course requirements have been met ExamFX will report course completions to Sircon and you may file a renewal application, pay all fees and follow the online renewal process at Sircon.
