Frequently Asked Questions

Yes. Most courses include state CE credit and fit real insurance professionals’ schedules.

Start there—but don’t stop there. Ladder into CIC or RiskPRO when you’re ready to turn education into production.

Most producers apply what they learn the same day they learn it. Clearer discovery, stronger submissions, better conversations result in more conversions.

No. Professionals with 0–5 years of experience who already understand policy language are encouraged to enroll when a RiskPRO niche fits their book or a book they are looking to expand into. These 16-hour, instructor led certifications are built for insurance producers ready to level up.
