✅ Does This Course Satisfy the State Requirement?

This course provides 3 approved hours toward the 24 credit hours a Connecticut resident producer must complete in each two-year licence period. It does not satisfy the requirement on its own, and it is general credit – it does not count toward the 3 hours of Laws, Regulations and Ethics (LRE) that Connecticut also requires.

Connecticut places no cap on self-study or online hours, so all 3 hours count in full. After this course you will need the balance of your 24 hours, including the 3-hour Laws, Regulations and Ethics (LRE) requirement, from separately approved courses.

✅ Connecticut Continuing Education Requirements

Connecticut requires 24 hours of approved continuing education in each two-year licence period, and 3 of those 24 must be in Laws, Regulations and Ethics – the category Connecticut abbreviates as LRE. The LRE hours sit inside the 24 rather than on top of them. A producer may generally take courses in any line of authority, although the Department recommends taking them in the lines you actually write.

• 24 credit hours of approved continuing education in each two-year period
• 3 of the 24 must be Laws, Regulations and Ethics (LRE) credit
• Licences renew by the last day of your birth month, every two years
• No cap on self-study or online hours – all 24 may be completed online
• Up to 24 hours may be carried forward into the next period; surplus LRE credit carries as general credit
• The same course cannot be repeated for credit inside one renewal period

Connecticut also carries three separate product-training gates that sit outside the general 24. Selling Partnership long-term care products requires the one-time Long-Term Care Partnership training. Selling annuities requires a state-approved 4-hour annuity suitability course. And as of 15 April 2026 newly licensed Property & Casualty and Personal Lines producers must complete a one-time 3-hour NFIP flood course. Nonresident producers, adjusters, and licensees holding only credit, travel accident or surety bail bond authority are exempt from the 24-hour requirement.

How this course helps: This 3-hour course contributes 3 of the 24 credit hours required in each two-year licence period. It is general credit, so it does not count toward the 3-hour Laws, Regulations and Ethics (LRE) requirement. The balance of your 24 hours must be completed separately.

✅ When Do Licensees Renew?

Connecticut producer licences renew every two years, by the last day of your birth month. The cycle is tied to your birthday rather than to a fixed statewide date, so two producers in the same agency can have different deadlines. Confirm your own date on your licence record rather than assuming, and remember that continuing education has to be complete and reported before you renew – being CE-compliant and paying the renewal fee are two separate steps.

✅ How to Renew Your Connecticut License

1. Confirm your renewal date and the lines of authority on your licence. Your date is the last day of your birth month, every second year.
2. Work out what you still owe: 24 hours in total, of which 3 must be Laws, Regulations and Ethics.
3. Check whether any product-training gate applies to you – annuity suitability, Long-Term Care Partnership, or the one-time NFIP flood course required of newly licensed Property & Casualty and Personal Lines producers since 15 April 2026.
4. Complete your hours from courses individually approved in Connecticut. Approval in another state does not carry over.
5. Allow reporting time before your deadline. 1st Choice CE reports your completion to the Department; do not leave it to the final days.
6. Check your transcript and confirm the LRE hours posted in the LRE category rather than as general credit.
7. Renew your licence and confirm it shows active with an updated expiration date.

Carryover is generous in Connecticut by comparison with most states – up to 24 hours move forward into the next period – but surplus LRE credit carries as general credit only, so it will not pre-satisfy the next period's 3-hour LRE requirement. A course cannot be repeated for credit inside the same renewal period.

✅ What You Will Learn

• Identify the cyber exposures a standard property and casualty form was never written to insure
• Explain what a cyber policy actually pays for, first-party and third-party
• Spot the coverage gap created the moment a client turns on a rideshare or delivery app
• Describe how telematics and usage-based rating change what a client is charged
• Discuss AI-assisted underwriting and rating with a client honestly
• Explain catastrophe and availability trends without alarming or misleading a client

✅ Course Content Overview

Hour 1 – Cyber Liability Insurance Essentials for Modern Businesses

Cyber exposures traditional property and casualty forms were never written to insure, and what a cyber policy actually pays. Covers the core first-party and third-party coverage parts, the policy mechanics that decide whether a claim is paid — retentions, waiting periods, sublimits and the difference between a claims-made and an occurrence trigger — and the underwriting questions and security controls that now determine whether a risk is quotable at all.

Hour 2 – Rideshare and On-Demand Delivery Coverage Gaps and Solutions

The on-demand economy exposure and why it does not fit the personal auto policy. Works through the limitations of the personal auto form and the exact points at which coverage lapses between logging on, accepting a ride and completing a delivery, then reviews the solutions available — platform-provided coverage, rideshare endorsements and commercial auto — applied to scenario-based examples an agent will recognize from a real client conversation.

Hour 3 – InsurTech Trends and Climate-Related Specialty Market Impacts

How telematics, AI-assisted rating and automated claims handling are reshaping underwriting, and the consumer and compliance considerations that come with them. Covers the catastrophe and climate pressures now driving capacity, deductible structures and pricing in specialty property, and the placement concepts an agent needs when a risk moves toward the surplus lines market.
