Governing bodyTexas Department of Insurance (TDI)

Resident general lines/life individual agents must complete 24 hours of continuing education every two years, including 3 hours of ethics (2 hours if the license expired on or before Aug 31, 2022). At least half (12 hours) must be earned in a classroom or classroom-equivalent setting. TDI groups courses only as "General" and "Ethics" and does not divide them by line of authority, so no separate long-term care, annuity-suitability, or flood CE mandate is published for the standard resident producer license. Some limited license types (e.g., county mutual, limited lines) require only 10 hours.
