How many continuing education credit hours must a producer complete every renewal period?

• A. 12
• B. 36
• C. 48
• D. 24

Answer: (D)

Continuing education keeps a producer current and allows the license to remain active. In Louisiana, the requirement is 24 continuing education credit hours for each renewal period, which is a two-year cycle. That means you need to complete about 12 hours per year, and you must meet the total of 24 hours by the renewal deadline. If the hours aren’t completed, the license can lapse or be suspended until the requirements are fulfilled. So 24 hours every renewal period is the standard requirement.
