North Carolina S377 eliminates training course requirements for insurance producer licensure.

North Carolina S377 removes the need for insurance producers to complete specific training courses for licensure. Instead, applicants must provide evidence of at least 20 hours of instruction, including general insurance principles and relevant topics. The Commissioner may contract for preparatory materials but must not require a specific course. The bill also exempts previously licensed individuals from prelicensing education if they apply for the same lines of authority. This act takes effect October 1, 2025.
