Existing law requires the Department of Insurance to require all new applicants for license as a property broker-agent, casualty broker-agent, limited lines automobile insurance agent, personal lines broker-agent, life agent, or accident and health or sickness agent to meet specified prelicensing education standards that include 20 hours of prelicensing study as a prerequisite to qualification for a license. Existing law requires the curriculum for satisfying this requirement to be approved by the curriculum board and submitted to the Insurance Commissioner for final approval.
This bill would eliminate the requirement that all new applicants must meet the 20 hours of prelicensing study. The bill would also make conforming changes.
