Governing bodyIdaho Department of Insurance

Resident producers holding any full line of authority (or Surety) must complete 24 hours of continuing education per two-year cycle, including a minimum of 3 hours of ethics. CE must be completed and posted before a renewal can be submitted (DOI recommends finishing 30+ days early). Certain lines require line-specific training: long-term care, flood insurance, and annuities (annuity suitability/best-interest training). Excess hours do not carry over to the next cycle. CE is exempt for business entities, non-resident producers, surplus lines, and those holding only Credit, Pet, or Travel lines.
