While most insurance professionals in BC are breathing a huge sigh of relief this fine Monday morning, Alberta brokers, agents and adjusters are stepping up to the CE home plate for a few practice swings.
Alberta you’re up!
Your June 30 CE deadline is just around the corner, so get online and get to work.
(I know it it’s Monday and you aren’t even thinking about CE yet, but don’t worry Alberta, we’ll be badgering Manitoba Adjusters too, not just you. Promise.)
Here’s a friendly reminder of your Alberta Insurance CE requirements and record keeping obligations.
General insurance – July 1 to June 30 annually – 15 CE credits
Adjusters – July 1 to June 30 annually – 15 CE credits
Life and Accident and Sickness – July 1 to June 30 annually – 15 CE credits
Agents, brokers and adjusters in Alberta must maintain their continuing education certificates for three years after the expiry of the licensing period in which the credits were earned. The Alberta Insurance Council may conduct random audits and these audits will only extend back three years.
Alberta allows for a carry-over of 7.5 hours/credits per year, per insurance class.
All licensees will be required to earn 15 hours of credits per certificate (with a carry-over of 7.5 hours per year allowed.) When renewing his or her license, the licensee must declare that he or she has obtained the required number of hours. The Alberta Insurance Council may conduct random audits.
