Effective January 1, 2024, Alabama House Bill 60 deleted the prelicensing course requirement for all Alabama insurance producers, independent adjusters, apprentice independent adjusters, and title insurance agents. Those applying for licensure must still pass the applicable State Exam.

Alabama Attorneys: This Program is approved by the Mandatory CLE Commission of Alabama for a maximum of 16.7 hours credit, including 1 hour of ethics.
