Do You Qualify for an Insurance License?

See the Following Prerequisites:

• Be at least 18 years of age or older
• Have a high school diploma or its equivalent (GED)

1. Complete a Pre-licensing Course

If you would like to sell insurance in Connecticut, you must complete an approved line of pre-licensing education and pass the state licensing exam. All courses are cross-referenced with the exam content outline.

To satisfy the requirements for your course, you will need to pass a Certification Exam.  The Certification Exam is not monitored.  After passing the Certification Exam with a 70% or greater, you will receive a Certificate of Completion. Pre-licensing education is valid for one year from the date of completion; you will need to take and pass your state exam within this timeframe. Connecticut requires you to present your Certificate of Completion at your licensing exam.
