Rhode Island Insurance Continuing Education Requirements

A Complete Guide for 2025

If you are a licensed insurance producer or adjuster in Rhode Island, meeting your continuing education (CE) requirements on time is essential to maintain your license with the Department of Business Regulation. This 2025 guide explains everything you need to satisfy CE rules-24 total hours every two years-including ethics, annuity, long-term care, flood training, exam format, and how to complete your CE fast using NobleCE’s mobile-friendly platform, bundle pricing, and instant state reporting.

What Is Insurance Continuing Education?

Insurance continuing education comprises approved courses that keep licensed professionals up to date on legal changes, ethical standards, product training, and best practices. Rhode Island requires CE every two years to ensure consumer protection and industry competency. Producers must complete 24 hours per biennial term, including 3 hours of ethics.

Who Needs to Complete CE in Rhode Island?

Resident insurance producers and adjusters in major lines must complete CE. Non-residents are exempt only if their home state is reciprocal. Exemptions exist for those age 55+ with 25 years of continuous licensing, and limited lines such as credit, crop, travel, surety, or title do not require CE.

Rhode Island Insurance CE Requirements Overview

Rhode Island CE requirements include:

  • 24 total hours every two years
  • 3 hours in ethics
  • A minimum of 5 hours in each line of authority held
  • Up to 12 excess hours may carry over, with ethics hours applied to that total.
  • Courses cannot be repeated more than once within the same cycle.

Special Requirements for Certain Licensees

Additional training is required before selling certain products:

  • Annuity Training: One-time 4-hour annuity suitability and best interest course before selling annuities. Producers who completed a 4-hour annuity course before April 1, 2021 may take a 1-hour update
  • Long-Term Care (LTC): 8-hour initial LTC partnership training is required, followed by 4-hour refresher training every two years
  • Flood Insurance Training: A one-time 3-hour NFIP flood course is required before selling flood insurance

When Is the CE Deadline in Rhode Island?

CE must be completed by the last day of your birth month, every two years. Producers may renew up to 90 days early with no extensions beyond the renewal period.

How to Find Approved CE Courses in Rhode Island

Only Rhode Island-approved or reciprocal-state-approved courses count. NobleCE provides mobile-friendly, self-paced courses-including specialty product training-fully approved for Rhode Island and instant reporting to Sircon or the state, usually within one business day.

Step-by-Step: How to Complete Your Rhode Island Insurance CE

  1. Confirm your CE deadline based on birth month.
  2. Select from NobleCE’s Rhode Island-approved courses or CE bundles.
  3. Complete courses online at your convenience.
  4. Take open-book self-study exams with no proctor required, 70% passing score, and unlimited retakes.
  5. Receive your certificate immediately.
  6. NobleCE reports your completion and roster fee (if applicable) within one business day.

What Happens If You Miss the CE Deadline?

If CE is not completed by your renewal date, your license will lapse and appointments will terminate. To reinstate, complete your CE, pay renewal fees, and reapply through Sircon.

CE Exemptions and Extensions

Exemptions include:

  • Producer age 55+ with 25 years of continuous license
  • Nonresident reciprocal licensees
  • Limited line producers, attorneys, and crop licensees 65+ with 10 years
  • Military or medical hardship extensions granted by the Director for up to one year.

How to Check Your CE Transcript

Use Sircon or the Rhode Island License Lookup tool to review your transcript. Keep completion certificates for at least five years. NobleCE reports CE within one day, though the state allows up to 14 days.
