An Act relative to continuing insurance education
This bill amends Massachusetts insurance laws to allow licensed agents to earn up to three hours of continuing education credit annually for maintaining an active membership in The National Association of Insurance and Financial Agents of Massachusetts. Under the new provision, agents can receive a total of nine hours of credit over any 36-month period if they are required to complete at least 45 hours of education during that time. The change directly affects insurance license holders who are subject to the state's continuing education requirements and wish to count their professional association membership toward those obligations.
