✅ Does This Course Satisfy the State Requirement?

This course provides 3 approved hours toward the 24 credit hours a Hawaii resident producer completes every two years. It does not satisfy the requirement on its own, and it does not satisfy the separate 3 hours of ethics or insurance laws and rules.

The hours are approved in the Property & Casualty group, so they apply to your Property & Casualty allocation only. Hawaii does not let surplus credit in one group fill a shortfall in the other, so check which groups you hold before you buy. Hawaii places no cap on self-study, so all 3 hours count in full.

✅ Hawaii Continuing Education Requirements

Hawaii is one of the few states that splits continuing education by line-of-authority group rather than pooling it. Under HRS § 431:9A-124, the total is always 24 credit hours, but how those 24 are allocated depends on what you hold. A producer with Life and/or Accident & Health authority completes 21 hours in that group plus 3 hours relating to ethics training or to the insurance laws and rules. A producer with Property, marine and transportation, vehicle, general casualty or surety authority – Personal Lines included – completes 21 hours in that group plus the same 3 hours. A producer holding both groups completes 10 Life/A&H hours, 11 P&C hours and 3 ethics hours. Holding two groups does not increase the total past 24.

• 24 credit hours in total for every resident producer – the total never goes above or below 24
• Life and/or Accident & Health only: 21 Life/A&H hours plus 3 hours of ethics or insurance laws and rules
• Property & Casualty only, including Personal Lines: 21 P&C hours plus the same 3 hours
• Both groups: 10 Life/A&H hours, 11 P&C hours, and 3 hours of ethics or laws and rules
• No cap on self-study or online hours – all 24 may be completed online
• No carryover at all, and a course taken twice in one cycle earns credit only once

The allocation rule is the part that catches producers out. Excess Life/Health credit does not migrate to the Property/Casualty requirement, and excess P&C credit does not migrate the other way. Only surplus dedicated ethics or laws-and-rules credit spills over, and it flows to Life/Health first and Property/Casualty second. Hawaii allows no carryover between renewal cycles at all, and credits are valid for 24 months after completion. Nonresident producers who satisfy their home state's requirement are exempt under HRS § 431:9A-116.

How this course helps: This 3-hour course contributes 3 hours toward your Hawaii Property & Casualty allocation within the 24-hour biennial total. It does not satisfy the separate 3 hours of ethics or insurance laws and rules, and because Hawaii allocates by group, these hours cannot be applied to the other line-of-authority group. The balance of your 24 hours must be completed separately.

✅ When Do Licensees Renew?

Hawaii individual producer licences renew on the last day of your birth month, on a two-year cycle. It is not a fixed statewide date. Business entities are different – the last day of July for a resident entity and the last day of April for a nonresident entity. Confirm your own renewal date in SBS License Manager rather than assuming, and note that Hawaii publishes no odd-or-even-year rule tied to your birth year.

✅ How to Renew Your Hawaii License

1. Confirm your renewal date and which line-of-authority groups you hold. Your date is the last day of your birth month, biennially.
2. Work out your split: 21 plus 3 if you hold one group, or 10 plus 11 plus 3 if you hold both. Remember that Life/Health hours cannot fill a Property/Casualty shortfall.
3. Complete your hours from courses individually approved in Hawaii. Approval in another state counts for nothing here.
4. Finish at least 15 days before your renewal date. The Insurance Division no longer accepts completion certificates from licensees – your provider uploads them, and the credits must be on file before the renewal fee can be submitted.
5. Check your credits in SBS License Manager and confirm each course posted in the right category, because the Division re-allocates your transcript each time a new course lands.
6. Renew online at NIPR – online renewal is mandatory in Hawaii. The resident producer renewal fee is $100.
7. Confirm the licence shows active, and keep your own completion records for four years as HRS § 431:9A-125 requires.

There is no grace period. Missing the requirement places your licence on inactive status automatically under HRS § 431:9A-124(d). Reinstatement carries a penalty of double the unpaid renewal fee and is available for 12 months from inactivation, with no re-examination in that window. After 12 months you must apply as a new applicant. Because the provider has up to 15 days to upload and the Division must hold the credits before you can pay, finishing in the final fortnight is genuinely risky.

✅ 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 risk in a property and casualty book: ransomware, business email compromise, funds transfer fraud and data breach, why an unendorsed commercial form leaves these largely uninsured, and what a cyber policy pays for on the first-party and third-party sides.

Hour 2: Rideshare, delivery and the shared economy: the three-period framework, where a personal auto policy stops and platform coverage begins, home-sharing and short-term rental exposures, and the endorsements that close the gap.

Hour 3: How risk is being priced now: telematics and usage-based programs, AI-assisted underwriting and rating and the transparency questions it raises, catastrophe modeling, and what availability and capacity trends mean for the conversations you have at renewal.
