Compliance Renewal Date
Renewal date is the last day of the licensee's birth month, biennially.
You may also need to take specific courses or earn specific credit types to renew your license. These course completions will count toward the total hour requirement.
For All Licenses:
Ethics
3 hrs - Producers & Adjusters must complete 3 hrs of Ethics as part of the total requirement.

Courses may not be taken more than once in a reporting period.
If you meet any of criteria below, you may be exempt from the continuing education requirements.
Once you have determined the renewal requirements for your license, you can register for courses. Each course has an associated credit type; when registering for courses, select courses with credit types that will help to fulfill the renewal requirements for your license.
PreLicenseTraining.com offers webinar, online, and self study courses for Oregon. You can register for courses at CE Courses.
You must fulfill the course requirements for each of the courses to have them reported.
Important Notice: The Oregon Insurance Division states that producers may not complete more than 8 hours of CE credit in one day. For example, any course that is approved for 9-16 hours of credit will take a minimum of 2 days to complete. An course approved for 17-24 hours will take a minimum of 3 days to complete.
*Self-study (books) final exams are required to be closed book and proctored by a state-registered proctor or a third party who is a librarian, state or community college representative, certified public accountant (CPA), or attorney. Online interactive course exams do not require a monitor.
