Continuing Education Reciprocity Agreement

In 2019, the Working Group reviewed the Continuing Education Reciprocity (CER) Agreement. The NAIC's General Counsel advised the Working Group that a revision of the agreement would not be feasible due to the date of the CER Agreement and inaccurate/dated information it contains. The decision was to create a new CER Agreement. During the Fall National Meeting the Producer Licensing (D) Task Force adopted the 2019 CER Agreement. The agreement will be presented to the Executive (EX) Committee during the Summer National Meeting for final adoption. The adopted draft is attached below.
