Current Bill Summary

SB 548 - This act specifies that an insurance producer's active participation in a local, regional, state, or national professional insurance association may be approved by the Director of the Department of Commerce and Insurance for up to four hours of continuing education credit per biannual reporting period.

Credit granted under these provisions shall not be used to satisfy continuing education hours required to be in a classroom or classroom-equivalent setting, or to satisfy ethics education requirements.

This act is substantially similar to provisions in the truly agreed to and finally passed CCS/SS#2/SCS/HB 273 (2021), provisions in the truly agreed to and finally passed SCS/HB 604 (2021), and provisions in the truly agreed to and finally passed HCS/SS/SB 6 (2021), identical to HB 1114 (2021), provisions in CCS/SB 9 (2021), provisions in HCS/SB 330 (2021), and similar to HCS/HB 1647 (2020).
