On October 1, 2012, Florida will be changing the CE requirements for Adjuster/Agents. In order to eliminate the breakdown of credit (Law, Ethics, General, etc) licensees will now be required to take ONE “5 hour update” course every two years. Under the new law, licensees will be required to take a five-hour course that will include revisions in the insurance code, industry trends, disciplinary actions and insurance products. The remaining 19 hours can be taken in whatever category they choose.
The first compliance period that will be affected is October 2014.

Lawmakers also changed the licensing of adjusters so they no longer have to maintain multiple licenses.
