Illinois Insurance Continuing Education for Life and Health Professionals
Illinois Life and Health insurance producers must complete continuing education every two years to maintain their active license. NobleCE offers Illinois-approved online CE courses that fulfill all state requirements in a mobile-friendly, self-paced format for your convenience.
What Is Life and Health Insurance CE?
Life and Health CE in Illinois encompasses updated training on regulatory law, ethical standards delivered in classroom or webinar formats, and product knowledge covering areas such as annuities and long-term care. Producers are required to complete 24 credit hours every two years, including 3 hours of mandated ethics training.
Who Needs to Complete Insurance CE?
All Life and Health license holders in Illinois must complete CE before their license renewal, which falls on the last day of their birth month every two years. Nonresident producers who meet renewal requirements in their home state may be exempt from Illinois’s general CE hours, but they are still required to complete Illinois-mandated training if they sell certain products in the state.
Top Questions Agents Ask About CE Courses
Is annuity training required in Illinois?
Yes. If you are selling annuities in Illinois, you must complete a one-time four-hour annuity suitability course before offering those products. This training counts toward the total 24-hour CE requirement.
Is long-term care training required in Illinois?
Yes. Producers selling long-term care insurance must complete an eight-hour initial course followed by a four-hour refresher at each renewal cycle to maintain compliance.
Is ethics training required?
Yes. Three credit hours of ethics training are required in a classroom or live webinar format within each two-year cycle.
Do I Need to Pass a Final Exam
Yes. You will need to pass a final exam with a minimum score of 70 percent to earn credit for each course. Retakes are allowed until you pass, and your progress is automatically saved.
Mobile-Friendly CE Options That Fit Your Schedule
Our courses work on phones, tablets, and desktops. With mobile compatibility and auto-saved progress, you can complete your CE whenever it works best for your schedule.
Approved Providers Versus Unapproved Risk Why It Matters
CE credits are only valid when courses are taken through providers approved by the Illinois Department of Insurance. Courses from unapproved sources or those that do not follow state exam formats may lead to credit denial. NobleCE is fully approved for Illinois CE and assures compliance for all content, delivery format, exam procedures, and reporting.
Check Your CE Transcript and Credit Hours
You can track your completed CE through the Illinois insurance licensing portal. NobleCE provides certificates upon course completion and reports credits promptly, so your transcript reflects your full compliance status.
Avoiding CE Penalties and Lapsed Licenses
Illinois licenses expire every two years on the last day of the licensee’s birth month. There is no grace period for completing CE. Licensees who fail to complete CE on time risk having their licenses lapse and may face late fees or reinstatement processes. It is recommended to complete CE at least 30 days prior to renewal.
