Education for Licensees

Nebraska Resident Producer
Continuing Education Requirements

 

Resident insurance producers must satisfy continuing education requirements prior to being eligible to renew their license. 

The renewal window opens 90 days prior to the licensee's expiration date, but only after all education requirements are fulfilled. 

You cannot renew your license the same day you complete your education. Eligibility begins 24 hours after all CE has been uploaded into our database by the CE Provider, who is allowed 10 days to do so. The Department will not accept any completion certificates from licensees.

Continuing Education FAQs

General Education Type 

The course group required for continuing education can be made of any type of insurance to qualify as "General." Example: If you hold a license for Property/Casualty and Life/Health, you may do all 21 General in Health and still comply. 

Every Licensee shall complete a minimum of 3 hours of Ethics in order to renew their license. If more than 3 hours are taken, it may be applied towards the General hours.
