Method to Certify Completion

The licensee submits the CE filing fee to the insurance department by the compliance date. The course provider keeps copies of attendance rosters on file for two years. The licensee keeps the certificates of completion in his or her files and furnishes them to the insurance department upon request as part of a random audit.

Nonresidents

Exempt if licensee's home state requires substantially similar CE. Nonresident submits letter of certification (not more than 90 days old) with the renewal card and fees. If licensee's home state has no similar CE requirement, licensee must comply with Utah's CE requirement.

Nonresident independent adjusters are required to be licensed in Utah.

Seminars & Classroom Courses

These courses are instructor led programs, usually in a live classroom setting, and do not require you to pass an exam to receive CE credit for the course. 

You must choose one of the locations listed in the options above. Please make note of the address of the seminar you choose. You will also receive an email confirmation of your enrollment, which will include the address of the seminar. You can return here to review the address if you misplace it before the class.

All of our seminars begin at 8:30 AM and end at 4:30 PM unless otherwise noted on your confirmation notice.  Please arrive at the classroom at least 10 minutes before the starting time on your confirmation notice. All students must be signed-in and seated BEFORE the official class start-time. If you arrive late, please DO NOT interrupt the class in session. You can talk to the instructor at the first break regarding the possibility of obtaining credit for the class or rescheduling for another date. Remember, these classes fill up quickly, and there is usually little or no room for agents who arrive at the last minute without registering in advance.

Cell phones must be turned off during the entire duration of the seminar. You will have time to return messages and make calls during breaks and at lunch. 

During the class, you must not have any materials on your desk except the textbook or handout provided by the instructor. By law, students who are reading other materials, talking to other students, sleeping, or otherwise not participating in the learning experience are not allowed to receive CE credit!

Absolutely no recruiting or marketing for products, services, employment or any other activity is allowed at any time during the seminar - including during breaks and lunch. Students caught doing this may be asked to leave immediately and will NOT receive a refund.
